Keto Chicken Cordon Bleu Melt
Ingredients
  • 1 pound chicken cutlets, pounded to 1/4-inch thickness
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 2/3 cup almond flour
  • 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup avocado oil
  • 1/4 pound shaved deli ham
  • 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius).
2
Season chicken cutlets with a pinch of salt and pepper, then set them aside for the time being.
3
To create a binding agent, whisk eggs and Dijon mustard together in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish, combine almond flour, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder.
4
Dip chicken cutlets into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to fall away. Next, coat them with the almond flour mixture, placing them on a plate once done.
5
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken cutlets and cook until they are golden brown, taking approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Flip them over and continue cooking until the chicken is no longer pink inside and the juices run clear, adding another 3 to 4 minutes.
6
Place the chicken cutlets on a baking sheet and top each one with slices of ham. Cover them with Swiss cheese.
7
Pop the chicken cutlets into a preheated oven and bake until the cheese has melted, taking around 4 to 5 minutes. Serve hot immediately.
