How to Make Crunchy Almond Raspberry Chicken

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a shallow dish, whisk together the flour, almond flour, salt, and pepper.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs.
  4. In a third bowl, combine the sliced almonds.
  5. Dip each chicken breast first in the flour mixture, then in the egg, and finally in the almonds, ensuring it's fully coated.
  6. Place the breaded chicken breasts in a baking dish.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden brown.
  8. While the chicken is baking, prepare the raspberry sauce: In a small saucepan, combine the raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice.
  9. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries have softened and released their juices (about 5-7 minutes).
  10. Remove from heat and mash the raspberries slightly with a fork or potato masher for a chunky sauce or use an immersion blender for a smoother consistency.
  11. Strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve (optional) to remove seeds.
  12. Once the chicken is cooked, serve immediately, drizzled generously with the raspberry sauce.
