Avocado Oil Baked Peanut Crusted Chicken

Ingredients

• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total)
• 1/4 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
• 2 tbsp NON-GMO AVOCADO OIL EXPELLER PRESSED
• 1 cup Garlic & Herb Bread Crumbs
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
• 2 tbsp water
• Salt and black pepper to taste

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of the avocado oil.

2. 2

   In a shallow dish, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, 1 tablespoon avocado oil, and water until smooth. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

3. 3

   Dip each seasoned chicken breast into the peanut butter mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.

4. 4

   Place the garlic & herb bread crumbs in another shallow dish. Roll the peanut-coated chicken in the bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere a thick layer.

5. 5

   Place the crusted chicken on the prepared baking sheet.

6. 6

   Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden brown and crispy (internal temperature 165°F/74°C).
