Chicken Parmesan

I finally cooked a dinner!!! ha! I was feeling like I had some more energy so I decided to use that energy and put it towards dinner! I made Chicken Parmesan and it was De-Lish!!! The boys loved the chicken covered with Almond Meal and Shredded Coconut. 

  • The Ingredients:
  • 4 chicken breasts, boneless, skinless (1 to 1½ lbs total)
  • 2 cups blanched almond flour
  • 2 TBSP Shredded Coconut
  • 2 eggs, whisked
  • 6 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1 can Tomato Paste
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon Herbes de Provence
  • 6 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 16 ounces mozzarella cheese (I didn't use any cheese)

The Directions:

  • Mix Almond Flour, Coconut and Herbes de Provence. 
  • Cut chicken breasts in half for thinner cutlets; pat dry. Dip cutlets in egg, let excess run off then coat with almond flour mixture. Melt coconut oil over medium heat; then sauté chicken cutlets until deep golden brown on both sides. Remove chicken and drain on paper towel.
  • For tomato sauce combine tomato paste, water, garlic in a pan (I added extra herbs to the sauce); simmer for 15 minutes. Place ½ cup tomato sauce on bottom of a 9x13 inch Pyrex baking dish. Spread cutlets out in a single layer; cover with remaining tomato sauce, then layer with mozzarella, if you are doing dairy. We enjoyed ours without cheese!!!

  • Bake at 400° for 10-20 minutes.

I then saute spinach and topped the spinach with the chicken Parmesan! De-Lish!!!!

Make it Paleo has a simple Sauteed Spinach recipe in their new cookbook!!!! Check out my review, here!

  3. 3 Studies SHOW Why Coconut Oil Kills Fat.

    The meaning of this is that you literally burn fat by consuming Coconut Fats (in addition to coconut milk, coconut cream and coconut oil).

    These 3 studies from big medicinal journals are sure to turn the conventional nutrition world around!
