1 cup almond flour
2 tsp smoked paprika
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 large eggs, beaten
Avocado oil spray

Instructions:

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
In a large bowl, mix together almond flour, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs.
Dip the chicken pieces into the beaten eggs and then coat them in the almond flour mixture.
Place the chicken pieces in the air fryer basket, leaving some space between them.
Spray the chicken pieces with avocado oil spray.
Cook the chicken in the air fryer for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and crispy.
While the chicken is cooking, add the cauliflower florets to the remaining almond flour mixture and toss to coat.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the air fryer and set aside. Add the cauliflower florets to the air fryer basket and spray with avocado oil spray.
Cook the cauliflower in the air fryer for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the cauliflower is tender and crispy.
Serve the chicken and cauliflower together and enjoy!
