    Ingredients:<\/strong><\/h3>\n
      \n
    • 16 ounces boneless chicken breast<\/li>\n
    • \u00be cups dill pickle juice optional – I use Bubbies<\/li>\n
    • \u00be cup super-fine almond flour<\/li>\n
    • \u00be cup parmesan cheese see note<\/li>\n
    • \u00bd teaspoon smoked sea salt or sea salt<\/li>\n
    • \u00bd teaspoon pepper<\/li>\n
    • 2 eggs beaten<\/li>\n
    • Avocado oil spray<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n

      Instructions<\/h3>\n
      \n
        \n
      • \n
          \n
        • \n
          Wash chicken and place in a zip-top bag.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
        • \n
          Using a meat mallet, pound to a uniform thickness, about \u00bd inch.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
        • \n
          Place chicken in a bowl and pour pickle juice on top of it. Allow to brine in the refrigerator for up to two hours. (You may skip this step if desired.)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
            \n
          • \n
            Preheat air fryer to 390 degrees.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
          • \n
            In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
          • \n
            In a separate shallow dish, beat eggs.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
          • \n
            Drain chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Coat with eggs and then dregs in the almond flour mixture. Use your fingers to gently press the coating into the chicken. Spray both sides of the chicken with oil<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
          • \n
            Spray the Air Fryer with oil, and add chicken. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
          • \n
            Carefully flip with a spatula. Re-spray and cook an additional 6 to 7 minutes, until golden and crispy and the internal temperature is at least 160\u00b0 F. Allow to rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
            \n

            Notes<\/h3>\n
            \n

            Don’t have an Air Fryer?\u00a0 Make Oven Fried Chicken<\/h3>\n
              \n
            1. \n
                \n
              1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                  \n
                1. Place chicken on a parchment lined baking sheet.<\/li>\n
                2. Cook for 20 minutes.\u00a0 Carefully flip with a spatula.<\/li>\n
                3. Cook an additional 20 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                    \n
                  • \n
                      \n
                    • Make Ahead:\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0The chicken can be coated ahead of time and kept covered in the refrigerator for up to one day. You may also coat and freeze the chicken breast. To do this, place the coated chicken breast on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze. Once frozen solid, transfer to a freezer bag. When ready to cook, thaw on a plate in the refrigerator.<\/li>\n
                    • The quality of the\u00a0Parmesan Cheese<\/strong>\u00a0will impact the flavor of this recipe tremendously.\u00a0 I recommend buying a block of aged Parmesan if you can.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                        \n
                      • Almond flour can stick to surfaces more than traditional flours.\u00a0 Do not skip spraying the air fryer well with oil!\u00a0 If some of the coating sticks when you flip it, you can use the spatula to get the stuck bits up and gently press back into the chicken.\u00a0 If you spray well the sticking should be minimal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                        Variations<\/h2>\n
                          \n
                        • Soak chicken in\u00a0buttermilk instead of pickle juice<\/em>.<\/li>\n
                        • For a spicy kick, add two teaspoons (more or less to taste) of your favorite hot sauce to the egg mixture.<\/li>\n
                        • Not watching carbs and don\u2019t have almond flour?<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0Any flour will work.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
