Make
- Preheat oven to 375F (191C) degrees.
- Whisk eggs and 1 tbs. (15 ml) water in a shallow dish. Place almond meal into another shallow dish. Line a sheet pan with foil and spray with cooking oil.
- Dip chicken into egg wash and then into almond meal making sure it gets coated with the breading. Move it onto the sheet pan. Repeat until you're finished with all the chicken pieces.
- Give breaded chicken a light spray of cooking oil and then bake in the top rack of the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping once in the middle.
- While protein is baking, heat a saute pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil and then garlic to heated oil. Once you can smell the garlic, add the carrots and cabbage with a dash of salt and 1/4 cup (59 ml) of water. Saute until almost softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Then add in maple syrup, vinegar, and raisins. Saute for another 3 to 4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Mix together sour cream, lemon, mustard, and dill. Serve over chicken and enjoy with a side of your cabbage and carrots.
