Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or brush it lightly with oil.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the grated Parmesan, almond flour, minced garlic, and a pinch or two of salt and pepper until evenly blended.
- Brush each chicken breast with about 1/2 tablespoon olive oil so the coating will stick.
- Press each oiled breast into the Parmesan mixture, coating both sides and the edges. Pat firmly so the crust adheres.
Cooking
- Place the coated breasts on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them for even browning. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the tops if you like extra color.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the crust is golden and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F (74°C). Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes
For storage, cool leftovers within two hours and refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days. To reheat, avoid microwaving to keep the crust crispy. Freeze portions for up to 2 months.
