Parmesean Crusted Chicken Schnitzel (HFLC, High Fat Low Carb, Ketogenic)

IMG_2512.PNG

Ingredients:
• 1 cup Grated parmesan cheese (the powdered kind).
• 2 tsp. Dried Basil
• 2 tsp. Dried Oregano
• 1 tsp. pepper
• ½ tea spoon chilli (optional)
• 200grams of chicken breast
• 1 egg

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 170°C.

2. Grease a baking tray and place down baking paper.

3. Whisk egg in a bowl until yolk is combined with white.

4. Slice chicken breast any way you want (remember it needs to cook though, you could make thin slices for a schnitzel like texture or small cubes for nuggets).

5. In a separate bowl combine the remaining ingredients and pour onto a plate.

6. Dip the chicken breast into the egg and then cover in the parmesan crust mixture turning it over on both sides and then placing it onto the baking tray.

7. Continue this until all chicken is coated.

8. Place into the oven for approximately 15-20 minutes or until chicken is golden brown.

Hint: You can fry this in a pan with coconut or other oils to add extra fat if you’re trying to kick start ketosis but I find the Parmesan is enough.
