This recipe is not my typical recipe, it is definitely not healthy. Recently my boyfriend requested I make chicken parm, it is his favorite, so I conjured up my Italian genes and made this classic with a twist! Since I am gluten free, I used plantain chips instead of panko, and it was so good I decided to share it!
Try out this delicious chicken parm when you are wanting to indulge or impress!

Plantain Crusted Chicken Parm
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 1 Hour
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
- 4 thinly sliced chicken breasts
- salt and pepper
- 1 cup plantain chips
- 1 tsp ginger, minced
- 1/4 cup arrowroot flour
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp water
- Avocado oil
- 2 cups marinara, I use Raos
- 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 1 cup shredded firm mozzarella
Preparation:
STEP 1.
Preheat broiler. Salt and pepper chicken and set to the side.
STEP 2.
Pulse plantain chips in a food processor or blender until a powder / small chunks form. Mix with arrowroot, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. In another small bowl whisk an egg with 1 tbsp water for the egg wash. Dip your chicken in the egg wash and then into plantain mixture, coating on both sides.
STEP 3.
In a dutch oven or large pan, heat to medium high heat, add 1/4 inch of avocado oil all over. Once heated, add chicken, oil should come up half way up the chicken. Fry for 3-5 minutes until golden brown, then flip over. Once both sides are golden, transfer the chicken to a cookie rack.
STEP 4.
Place chicken in a baking dish and pour marinara all over, then cheese. Place under the broiler until golden brown, around 5 minutes. Remove and cool for 10 minutes before eating.
