  • Chicken Breasts 2 large
  • Almond Flour 1/2 cup
  • Egg 1 large
  • Olive Oil 2 tablespoons
  • Butter 3 tablespoons
  • Lemon Juice 2 tablespoons
  • Capers 2 tablespoons
  • Chicken Broth 1/4 cup

Instructions
 

  • Slice the chicken breasts horizontally into thinner cutlets and pound them to an even thickness.
  • Whisk the egg in a shallow bowl. In another shallow dish, combine almond flour, salt, and pepper.
  • Dip the chicken cutlets into the egg, then dredge in the almond flour mixture.
