Instructions

1. Cut each chicken breast in half horizontally to make 4 fillets. Season generously with Italian seasoning, onion powder, salt and pepper.
2. In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs, garlic and Italian seasoning, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and put the chicken in to marinate.
3. In another shallow bowl, combine the parmesan and almond flour.
4. Dip each piece in the egg mixture, let the excess drip off, then coat in the parmesan mixture, pressing lightly. Turn and repeat, then shake off the excess.
5. Heat the oil and butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Fry 2 pieces at a time, untouched, for about 4 minutes until the coating is crispy, golden and set.
6. Flip and fry the other side until golden and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
7. Set the oven rack to the middle and preheat the broiler to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish.
8. Spread half the marinara over the dish, sprinkle with red pepper flakes if using, and lay the chicken in a single layer. Spread the remaining sauce over the chicken.
9. Top with the mozzarella and parmesan, then broil for 5 to 10 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling and melted and the chicken is cooked through.
10. Sprinkle with basil or parsley before serving.
