Preparation
Prepare the chicken
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Pat the chicken dry; season with ½ the spices.
- In a medium bowl, combine the mayo, 1 tsp water (double for 4 portions) and S&P.
- In a second medium bowl, combine the almond flour and S&P.
- Working one at a time, coat the chicken in the mayo mixture (letting any excess drip off), then in the almond flour (pressing to adhere).
Cook the chicken
- In a medium, oven-safe pan, heat a thin layer of oil on medium.
- Add the chicken* and cook, 3 to 4 min. per side, until golden and partially cooked.
- Top with the tomato sauce and mozzarella.
- Transfer to the oven and bake, 8 to 12 min., until browned and cooked through.
- Switch the oven to broil, 2 to 3 min., if extra colour is desired.
Mise en place
- Meanwhile, halve the zucchini lengthwise; cut crosswise into ½ inch pieces on an angle.
- Remove the kale leaves from the stems; tear the leaves.
- In a large bowl, combine the kale, a drizzle of oil and S&P.
Roast the zucchini & kale
- On a lined sheet pan, toss the zucchini with a drizzle of oil, the remaining spices and S&P.
- Add the kale and top with the Parmigiano Reggiano.
- Roast, 7 to 9 min., until browned and tender.
Plate your dish
- Divide the zucchini, kale and chicken (slice beforehand if desired) between your plates. Bon appétit!
