2. Spread the almond flour into a thin layer on a plate. Roll the meatballs in the almond flour, one at the time, until coated all around.
   

3. Over medium high, heat a splash of olive oil in a skillet. Add the meatballs and sear until golden brown all around, about 2 min per side. Reduce the heat to medium, add a 1/4 cup of water to the pan, and cover to steam until chicken is cooked through inside, about 5 min. uncover and let the rest of the water evaporate. Remove from heat and set aside.
   

4. In a bowl combine white cabbage, red cabbage, carrots and chopped parsley. Add apple cider vinegar and a splash of olive oil. Salt to taste. Toss the slaw and set aside.
   

5. In a blender combine tahini, cooked beet, juice of 1/2 lemon, 1 garlic clove and salt generously. Add 2 ice cubes (this will ensure the sauce is smooth and bright red) and process until completely smooth.
   

6. Plate about 1/3 of the slaw, add the chicken meatballs on top and drizzle with the beet tahini sauce. Enjoy!
