Ingredients
- 1 pound Chicken breast
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces about 1 inch in size.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine all dry ingredients.
Step 3
In another bowl, beat the two large eggs until smooth.
Step 4
Dip each chicken piece into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is completely coated.
Step 5
Transfer the egg-coated chicken into the almond flour mixture, pressing down to ensure the flour mixture adheres well to each piece. Place coated chicken pieces on a plate lined with parchment paper until ready to fry.
Step 6
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
Step 7
Carefully add chicken pieces in batches, being sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8
Remove chicken bites from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 9
Serve hot with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce.
