Ingredients

  • 500 grams Ground chicken
  • 60 grams Almond flour
  • 1 large Egg
  • 50 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, almond flour, egg, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Mix the ingredients thoroughly using your hands or a spatula until everything is well combined.

Step 4

Scoop about 1 to 2 tablespoons of the mixture and shape it into a ball using your palms. Repeat until all the mixture is used up.

Step 5

Heat the olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat.

Step 6

Add the chicken balls to the skillet, ensuring they are spaced evenly apart to not overcrowd the pan.

Step 7

Cook the chicken balls for about 5 minutes or until they are golden brown on all sides, gently turning them as necessary.

Step 8

Once browned, transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken balls are cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 74°C (165°F).

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken balls rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot as a main dish or with your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce.
