Almond Chicken Bake

 What you need:

• 2 lbs chicken breasts or tenderloins 
• 1 cup almond meal
• 3 eggs
• 2 tbsp chili powder
• 1 tbsp italian seasoning
• 1.5 tbsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp cayenne 
• salt and pepper to taste

What you do:

1. Preheat oven to 400*. 
2. Grease or line a 13x9 baking sheet.
3. Mix all dry ingredients on a plate.
4. Beat eggs in a shallow dish.
5. Dip chicken in egg and dredge in dry ingredients. Hold onto dry ingredients until chicken is done.
6. Bake for 8 minutes each side (chicken breasts) or 5 minutes each side (tenderloins).

When I flipped the chicken, I sprinkled some more dry ingredients on there so it would get crispy.  Also, this comes out spicy, so if that's not your thing, only use 1 tbsp of chili powder.
