Ingredients

  • 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 2 large Egg
  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 0.5 cup Coconut flour
  • 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1.5 cups Olive oil for frying

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breast into small bite-sized pieces and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and baking powder. Mix thoroughly.

Step 4

Heat the olive oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Step 5

Dip each piece of chicken into the beaten eggs, coating completely.

Step 6

Dredge the chicken in the flour and cheese mixture, ensuring each piece is fully covered.

Step 7

Fry the chicken pieces in the hot oil, working in batches if necessary, until golden brown and cooked through; this should take about 5-6 minutes per batch. Maintain the oil's temperature for even cooking.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oil and let drain on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.

Step 9

Serve the crispy chicken balls hot, with a side of your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce.
