Servings: persons

1 (8 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast
1 egg
1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 ounces pork rinds, crushed
1 ounce grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 cup jarred tomato sauce (such as Rao's(R))
1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon ghee (clarified butter)

1
Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
2
Slice chicken breast through the middle horizontally from one side to within 1/2 inch of the other side. Open the two sides and spread them out like an open book. Pound chicken flat until about 1/2-inch thick.
3
Beat egg and cream together in a bowl.
4
Combine crushed pork rinds, Parmesan cheese, salt, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, ground black pepper, and Italian seasoning in bowl; transfer breading to a plate.
5
Dip chicken into egg mixture; coat completely. Press chicken into breading; thickly coat both sides.
6
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat; add ghee. Place chicken in the pan; cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Be careful to keep breading in place.
7
Transfer chicken to a baking sheet. Cover with tomato sauce; top with mozzarella cheese.
8
Broil until cheese is bubbling and barely browned, about 2 minutes.
