Ingredients

• 500 g Chicken breast
• 3 large Egg whites
• 100 g Rolled oats
• 50 g Parmesan cheese
• 100 g Whole wheat breadcrumbs
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Onion powder
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley
• 1 tsp Baking powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Cut the chicken breast into chunks and place them into a food processor. Pulse until finely ground but not a paste.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg whites, rolled oats, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and fresh parsley. Mix until well combined.

Step 4

Form the mixture into small balls, about the size of a golf ball, using your hands. Approximate uniform size ensures even cooking.

Step 5

In a shallow bowl, mix the whole wheat breadcrumbs with the baking powder to ensure extra crispiness.

Step 6

Roll each chicken ball in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure the crumbs adhere properly.

Step 7

Place the coated chicken balls on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil over each ball to help them crisp up during baking.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken balls are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm with your favorite dip or sauce.
