Chicken Parmesan (Dairy-Free)

Ingredients

• 4 chicken breasts, pounded thin
• 1/2 cup rice flour
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 2 cups marinara sauce (check label GF, no added sugar)
• dairy-free mozzarella-style shreds (melting variety)

Method

1. 1

   Mix almond flour, nutritional yeast, and oregano together.

2. 2

   Dredge chicken in rice flour, then egg, then the almond flour mixture, pressing to adhere.

3. 3

   Place the breaded chicken on a rack and let rest 10 minutes before cooking — this rest lets the coating set and bond to the chicken, so it doesn't slide off the moment it hits the hot oil.

4. 4

   Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook chicken 4-5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.

5. 5

   Top each piece with marinara sauce and dairy-free mozzarella, then broil 2-3 minutes until melted and bubbly.
