Dinner 30 Mins.

Ingredients

2

2 servings

  • 1 (8 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
  • 1.5 ounces pork rinds, crushed
  • 1 ounce grated Parmesan cheese
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon ghee (clarified butter)
  • 0.5 cup jarred tomato sauce (such as Rao's®)
  • 0.25 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • Set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Slice chicken breast through the middle horizontally from one side to within 1/2 inch of the other side. Open the two sides and spread them out like an open book. Pound chicken flat until about 1/2-inch thick.
  • Beat egg and cream together in a bowl.
  • Combine crushed pork rinds, Parmesan cheese, salt, garlic powder, red pepper, black pepper, and Italian seasoning in a separate shallow bowl or plate.
  • Dip chicken into egg mixture; coat completely. Press chicken into breading; thickly coat both sides.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat; add ghee. Place chicken in the pan; cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Be careful to keep breading in place.
  • Transfer chicken to a baking sheet. Cover with tomato sauce; top with mozzarella cheese.
  • Broil until cheese is bubbling and barely browned, about 2 minutes.
