Chicken Parmesan (Low-Carb, Keto)

Italian food was one of the first things to go when I weighed 330 pounds. Little did I know that I could make one of my favorite Italian dishes that fits my Keto/Primal lifestyle! This chicken gets a nice crisp to the outside with amazing flavor. This dish is a winner, even with the non-Keto crowd.
