Ingredients

For Chicken

  • 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts about 1 pound
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup Paleo Powder Pecan

For Serving

  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 lb. Brussels sprouts ends removed
  • ½ lb. baby golden potatoes

Instructions

  • Place Brussels sprouts and potatoes in the basket of the air fryer. Drizzle with olive oil, sea salt, and pepper. Air fry at 350ºF for 20 minutes, shaking the basket after 10 minutes for even cooking. Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
  • Slice chicken breasts lengthwise through the side to create 4 pieces. Blot excess moisture from chicken breasts with a paper towel.
  • Add eggs to a shallow bowl and beat. Add Paleo Powder to a shallow dish. Dip a chicken breast in egg and allow excess to drip off. Dredge in Paleo powder on both sides and place in the air fryer basket. Air fry 2 pieces at a time at 370ºF for 18-20 minutes. Repeat with the remaining 2 pieces.
  • Place 1 chicken breast in large compartments of 4 white MPOF containers. Divide Brussels sprouts and potatoes between the remaining 2 smaller compartments.
