Please help!
I am starting the plan over again starting today and of course I can't yet find the meal plan book (I know it's somewhere in my downstairs TV room but it's being renovated so I have yet to find it...)
I believe there is an almond crusted chicken recipe in there that I love? Or am I just crazy? ! I'm really hoping I'm not crazy lol but if it is in there, could someone please post the ingredients list? I'd like to make it tonight but can't for the life of me remember all the ingredients and I'd like to put it in the recipe builder here.
TIA!

Hope this is the one you wanted -
Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted almonds, toasted (I explain how below)
2 Tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 teaspoon grated lemon zest (or just add a tad more lemon juice)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary (my husband doesn't like rosemary, so I substituted oregano)
1 garlic clove
4 (4- to 5-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Toast almonds in the oven by spreading the almonds in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Toast in the oven until fragrant and lightly golden, approximately 5 to 6 minutes for almonds.
Preheat oven to 425 F.
In the work bowl of a food processor, place the almonds, olive oil, lemon zest and juice, rosemary (or oregano), garlic, and salt. Process until coarsely chopped; the mixture will be a thick paste.
Arrange the chicken breast halves in a baking dish. Divide the almond paste and spread on the breasts; pat down to cover each breast completely.
Roast in the oven until cooked through and an instant-read thermometer reads 165 to 170 F, about 10 minutes. Loosely tent with foil and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
Add green veggies or a salad. Possibly add rice or quinoa.
