Ingredients

  1. 2 crisp, tart apples, such as Granny Smith, cut into wedges
  2. 1 large bunch kale, tough stems removed and chopped into 2- to 3-inch pieces
  3. Vegetable oil, for tossing and frying
  4. Kosher salt
  5. 1/2 cup almond butter
  6. 1/3 cup milk
  7. 1 tablespoon honey
  8. 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  9. All-purpose flour, for dredging
  10. Panko bread crumbs, for coating
  11. Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. Toss the apple wedges and kale with 3 tablespoons vegetable oil and 3/4 teaspoon salt on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and the kale is crisp, about 20 minutes.
  3. Whisk together the almond butter, milk, honey and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
  4. Dredge the chicken in the flour, coat with the almond butter mixture, then roll in the panko breadcrumbs.
  5. Heat 1/2 inch vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F. Pan fry the chicken, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning, until crispy and cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Serve with the roasted kale and apples and lemon wedges.
