Simple Chicken Parmesan

Ingredients

• 816 gram boneless, skinless chicken breast
• salt and pepper (to taste)
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
• 2 1/2 ounce pork rinds
• 1/4 cup flaxseed meal
• 1/2 cup parmesan cheese (shredded)
• 2 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 large egg
• 1 1/2 teaspoon chicken broth
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1 cup low-carb tomato sauce (such as Rao's)
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh garlic
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• salt and pepper (to taste)

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400F. In a food processor, grind up the pork rinds, flaxseed meal, parmesan cheese, and spices. Transfer the mixture to a shallow bowl.

2. 2

   Slice the chicken breasts in half and pound them out into cutlets. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

3. 3

   In a separate shallow bowl from the coating, whisk the egg together with the chicken broth.

4. 4

   In a saucepan over medium heat, whisk together all of the ingredients for the sauce. Let this cook for at least 20 minutes while preparing the chicken.

5. 5

   Bread the chicken cutlets by dipping them in the egg mixture and then dipping them in the coating mixture. Set the breaded cutlets aside on a piece of foil.

6. 6

   Heat about half of the olive oil in a pan and fry each piece of chicken on both sides until crispy, adding more oil as needed. Fry the chicken in batches, so as not to overcrowd the pan.

7. 7

   Place the chicken in a casserole dish, pour the sauce over the top, and sprinkle with the mozzarella cheese. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is nice and melted.

8. 8

   Serve with side of choice. Enjoy!
