Beat 1 egg with 2 tablespoons water in a separate bowl.

Combine 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs and 1/4 cup ground almond in another bowl.

Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.

Dip the floured chicken breast into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off.

Coat the chicken breast with the breadcrumb and almond mixture, pressing lightly to adhere.

Place the coated chicken breasts on a tray that has been lightly sprayed with oil.

Spray the tops of the chicken breasts with oil for a golden finish.

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes until fully cooked and the crust is crunchy and golden.
