Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- In a shallow dish, mix together the almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried basil, salt, and black pepper.
- In a separate shallow dish, beat the eggs.
- Dip each chicken breast in the beaten eggs, then coat it in the almond flour mixture, pressing the mixture onto the chicken to ensure it sticks.
- Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and top each chicken breast with a few tablespoons of marinara sauce and 1/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
