This Chicken Schnitzel is a wholesome twist on a classic! Golden, crispy, and packed with flavour. It's coated in a nourishing almond meal crust boosted with Chief Nutrition's Unflavoured Whey Protein Powder, giving it an extra hit of protein to keep you fuelled and satisfied - without compromising on that satisfying crunch.
Made with almond meal instead of breadcrumbs, this schnitzel is naturally gluten-free, higher in protein, and free from the refined carbs of the traditional version. The whey protein blends seamlessly into the coating, so you get all the nutrition with none of the compromise. Best of all, it comes together quickly and easily, making it perfect for a nourishing weeknight dinner, a high-protein meal prep staple, or a crowd-pleasing dish the whole family will love.
500g chicken breast, butterflied into 4 'steaks'
1 cup almond meal
2 tbsp Chief Nutrition Unflavoured Whey Protein Powder
1 tbsp dried rosemary
1 tbsp dried garlic powder
1 tbsp dried onion powder
2 eggs
Salt & Pepper to taste
Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius and line a baking tray with unbleached baking paper. Set aside.
In a small to medium bowl, add the almond flour, Chief Nutrition Unflavoured Whey Protein Powder, dried rosemary, garlic and onion powder and salt and pepper. Mix well until combined and set aside.
In another small to medium bowl, add the 2 eggs and whisk well. Start to coat the chicken, by going into the egg mixture first and then the almond crumb (using a different hand for each to not get too messy). Place the chicken on the lined baking tray.
Place the baking tray into the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Feel free to flip halfway through to ensure a crunchy crumb. (We don’t used any spray or olive oil to bake as the almonds provide enough fat content!).
Once golden brown and cooked through, leave to cool for 5 minutes and sprinkle an extra bit of salt on top. Plate with fresh herbs (we used parsley and pea shoots) alongside a homemade Caesar salad and roasted ghee potatoes. Enjoy!
You can store these schnitzels in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
