Keto Parmesan Chicken Breasts

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 2 eggs

Method

1. Pound the chicken breasts until they’re 1/4 inch (6 mm) thick and cut into 6 portions
2. Set aside
3. Combine the cheese with the oregano, garlic, paprika, and pepper on a plate
4. On another plate or in a shallow bowl, beat the eggs
5. Dip the chicken in the egg and then the cheese mixture, coating both sides well
6. Melt the butter in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat (higher heat will scorch the cheese) and saute for 4 to 5 minutes per side or until cooked through
