Keto Chicken Parmesan | Keto Recipes | Headbanger's Kitchen

Butterfly the chicken breast and cover it with cling film.

Beat the chicken breast until it's thin and even.

Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.

For the egg wash, beat 1 egg and mix in Italian seasoning.

Grate 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese and chop parsley finely.

Mix the grated Parmesan with the chopped parsley to create a breadcrumb mixture.

Dip the seasoned chicken in the egg wash, then coat it thoroughly in the Parmesan and parsley mixture.

Heat olive oil and butter in a non-stick pan.

Fry the chicken for about 1 to 1.5 minutes on each side until cooked.

Remove the chicken and set aside, then add garlic to the same pan to brown.

Chop 2 tomatoes roughly and puree them in a blender.

Add the tomato puree to the pan with the browned garlic, season with salt, chili flakes, and dried oregano, and add a knob of butter.

Cover the sauce and let it cook for 5 minutes, then mix and taste for seasoning.

Chop basil and add it to the sauce for fresh flavor.

In a cast-iron oven-proof dish, layer the tomato sauce, then the fried chicken, and top with sliced fresh buffalo mozzarella cheese.

Broil in the oven at the highest temperature for 7 to 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and browned.
