How to Make Almond Chicken
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons tamari sauce, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
- Cut 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch bite-sized pieces. Add chicken to the tamari mixture and marinate for at least 15 minutes while preparing other ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup whole oat flour, 1 cup crushed pecans (or almonds), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat.
- Once the oil is hot, dredge the marinated chicken pieces in the flour mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated. Add chicken to the hot skillet.
- Reduce heat to medium-high.
- Cover and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside.
- Serve the delicious Almond Chicken immediately over cooked seasoned brown and wild rice.
