Keto Open-Faced Chicken Cordon Bleu

Ingredients

• pound chicken cutlets, pound ed to 1/4-inch thickness
• salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• large eggs
• teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2/3 cup almond flour
• 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 cup avocado oil
• 1/4 pound shaved deli ham
• cup shredded Swiss cheese

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. Season chicken cutlets with salt and pepper; set aside.
3. Whisk eggs and Dijon mustard together in a shallow bowl. Combine almond flour, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder in a separate shallow bowl. Dip chicken cutlets into egg mixture, letting excess drip off. Dredge with almond flour mixture, then set on a plate.
4. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken cutlets and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip over and cook until chicken is no longer pink inside and the juices are running clear, 3 to 4 minutes more.
5. Place chicken cutlets on a baking sheet. Top with ham slices and cover with Swiss cheese.
6. Bake in the preheated oven until cheese has melted, 4 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
