Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 425° F, and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or
parchment paper.
2. Prepare two medium bowls to dredge the chicken. In one bowl, whisk the two
eggs together and in the other bowl combine the almond meal, flour, bread
crumbs, coconut flakes, salt, pepper, turmeric powder, onion powder and garlic
powder.
3. Add all the chicken to the egg bowl and coat each piece thoroughly. Transfer

covers the chicken.

approximately 30 min until the outside looks golden. Once baked, remove from
the oven and serve immediately.
