Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Place ground almonds, Parmesan, salt and pepper into a shallow dish, stirring to combine. (If you have whole almonds on hand like we did, you can grind them in a powerful blender. We used our Blendtec.)
Place coated chicken strips into hot saute pan. Cook each side for about 3 minutes, until cooked through and browned.
Remove strips from skillet and let cool on a baking rack or paper towel lined plate.
Serve warm with your favorite chicken strip dips. My boys enjoy ketchup, yogurt Ranch, mustard and honey.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc
Chicken Tenders on the menu? Try pairing with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc. White meat is typically paired with white wine as to not overpower the flavor of the meat, so chardonnay and sauvignon blanc are safe choices. Chicken prepared with a tomato sauce or certainly a red wine sauce can and should be served with a red like a pinot noir. One wine you could try is Lapis Luna Chardonnay. It has 4.7 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 13 dollars.
