Lemon Baked Chicken

This was one of my favorite dinners I liked to eat growing up. I tweaked the ingredients to make it better for you and it is still one of my favorites AND super delicious.

Lemon Baked Chicken

1/2 C almond flour
1/2 C ground up oats (I use the vitamix)
1/4 tsp pepper
2 tsp salt
2 tsp paprika

1/2 C coconut oil
1 whole chicken cut up

1/2 tsp thyme
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/4 C olive oil
1 tbsp minced onion
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 C lemon juice (about 1 lemon)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Combine first 4 ingredients in a ziploc bag. Place coconut oil in a 9×13″ foil lined pan and set in oven to melt. Shake chicken pieces in bag with flour mixture until thoroughly coated. Place chicken in a single layer in melted coconut oil and bake 30 minutes. Meanwhile, make the sauce by combining the last 7 ingredients in a small bowl and set aside. After 30 minutes turn the chicken over and then bake an additional 15 minutes. Pour sauce over chicken and bake another 15 minutes.
Oh my goodness, you’re gonna LOVE it!! Yum!

Garbanzo Bean Bread

This bread is a great addition to soups or a nice hummus and sprout sandwich. It’s a nice bonus if you have fresh herbs to put in the batter.

Almond Flour Pancakes

Topped these with some of the slow cooker apple butter recipe I just posted and yum yum! They were gone in a hurry!

www.eatinginnately.com

1 C almond meal
2 eggs
1/4 C almond milk or water
2 Tbsp coconut oil (liquified)
1/4 tsp salt
1 Tbsp honey

Mix all ingredients in a bowl and cook on a cast iron skillet. I normally pre-heat my skillets with a little butter for about 5 minutes on the stove top first and the scoop out the pancake batter. You can also add in some grated apples and cinnamon or mashed bananas to the batter for a little something different. Yummy!

The drink pictured above is a banana, orange and almond milk smoothie.
