Found some great recipes online
This is a recipe for pecan crusted chicken. I accidentally deleted the title.... BUT -
if I were making this I wouldn't use canola oil at all. I'd use coconut oil. I would also use organic raw almonds instead of pecans. There were about 7 recipes posted, and they all sound amazing. All fit the low carb profile, however probably not enough to satisfy the strict diet regulation things.

TIP: Tip: It can be hard to find individual chicken breasts small enough for our recommended 4-ounce (uncooked) portion size. If yours are closer to 5 ounces each, remove the tender (about 1 ounce) from the underside to get the correct portion size. Wrap and freeze the leftover tenders; when you have gathered enough, use them in a stir-fry, for chicken fingers or in soups. |
I do lotsa chicken and fish if you're interested in swapping recipes.
