How to prepare chicken breast with orange and almonds

Place the flour in a bowl and flour the chicken slices on all sides.

In a large frying pan, add the extra virgin olive oil and a clove of garlic. We fry it just enough, then we gently arrange our chicken breast slices.

Fry them on both sides, then add the almonds and toast them together with the chicken. Season with salt and black pepper.

In the meantime we extract the juice from oranges and when the chicken is well cooked, we sprinkle it with the juice. Let the chicken cook until it is creamy.

Serve our chicken breast with orange and almonds, arranging on the meat a few spoonfuls of sauce left on the bottom of the pan.
