This has long been one of my favorite recipes and now I've adapted it for Paleo eating.

PALEO CHICKEN STRIPS
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup almond meal
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 tsp garlic powder
2 whole eggs (omega-3 enriched)
1/4 cup shredded cheese (optional)
coconut oil

Directions:
Using a paper towel spread coconut oil on cookie sheet until a light layer covers entirely. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut chicken breasts into strips. Combine almond meal, thyme, basil, salt, pepper, and garlic into a medium bowl and blend well. In a separate medium bowl whisk the two eggs. Dip chicken strips into eggs, roll in alomond meal mixture and arrange on cookie sheet. Lightly cover strips with shredded cheese and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until tender.

These also work well as appetizers. Just make the strips into 1" square nuggets.
