Time 27m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese ((shredded; or 6 large slices))
1 1/2 cups Cooked chicken breast ((plain without seasonings; diced or shredded))
1/2 large Avocado ((diced))
1/2 cup Roma tomato ((diced))
3 tbsp White onion ((minced))
1 tsp Paprika
1/2 tsp Garlic salt
1/2 tsp Cumin
1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper ((or more to taste))
1/4 cup Mozzarella cheese ((shredded))

Steps:

  • Make cheese crisps according to the instructions here - skip the Italian seasoning and just use 1 1/2 cups cheddar as written in the ingredients above. If using cheese slices, you'll cut each large slice into 4 squares and bake those instead. Set aside to cool.
  • Meanwhile, finely dice the chicken, avocado, tomatoes, and onions. Mix the spices together (garlic salt, paprika, cumin, and cayenne pepper), then stir into the chicken mixture.
  • After the chips have cooled for at least 15 minutes and are crispy, top them with spoonfuls of the chicken mixture. Sprinkle a couple shreds of mozzarella cheese on top of each chip.
  • If desired, place in the oven for a couple of minutes, just enough to melt the mozzarella cheese on top. Check on them often, and don't heat them too long, or the chips will melt.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 pounds thinly sliced chicken breast
Kosher salt
2 cups almond flour
3 large eggs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Ghee or avocado oil, for frying
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • If any of the chicken slices are thicker than 1/4 inch, pound them out one at a time between 2 sheets of plastic wrap with a meat mallet to a thickness of 1/4 inch.
  • Lay out the chicken on a baking sheet or plate and sprinkle all over with salt and just enough of the almond flour to lightly coat both sides.
  • Beat the eggs in a wide shallow bowl. In another wide, shallow bowl, mix the remaining almond flour with the Parmesan, paprika and garlic powder.
  • Dip 1 to 2 slices of chicken in the eggs to coat. Let the excess drip off, then coat thoroughly in the almond flour-Parmesan mixture. Return to the baking sheet or plate and repeat with the remaining chicken.
  • Heat 1/4 inch of ghee or avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add half the chicken and cook until golden on one side, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden on the other side, another 3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and repeat with the remaining chicken, adding more ghee or oil if needed. Serve with lemon wedges.
