Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, 2 cups of the almond flour, eggs, diced onion, garlic powder, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Step 2
Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until a cohesive mixture is formed.

Shape the mixture into croquettes, about the size of a golf ball, and then flatten slightly.
Step 4
Place the remaining almond flour and crushed low-carb breadcrumbs or pork rinds in separate shallow bowls for coating.
Step 5
Roll each chicken croquette first in the almond flour, ensuring an even coat, then dip it in the beaten egg, and finally dredge it in the low carb breadcrumbs or pork rinds.
Step 6
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 7
Fry the croquettes in batches for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp.
