This is one of my families favorite chicken dishes due to the fact that this meal is bursting with flavor...seriously.

INGREDIENTS
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 4 chicken breasts, split horizontally
 
  • 2 red bell peppers, diced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

Sauce:
  • 1 cup broth
  • 2 Tbsp honey
  • 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 Tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp dried mustard powder
  • 1/2 tsp celery seed
  • 1/4 tsp pepper

DIRECTIONS
  1. In a large pan heat the olive oil over medium-high.
  2. In a small bowl combine the coconut flour, 1/2 tsp of salt, and 1/4 tsp of pepper.
  3. Cut each chicken breast horizontally. 
  4. Dip each halved chicken breast into the coconut flour mixture until coated on all sides.
  5. Place the chicken on the heated pan and sear each side 2-3 minutes until slightly golden. Set aside on a separate plate.
