Ingredients

  • 500 grams chicken breast
  • 100 grams almond flour
  • 50 grams parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 0 baking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and lightly spray it with baking spray.

Step 2

Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces, roughly 2 centimeters each, and set aside.

Step 3

In a bowl, mix almond flour, grated parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. This will be your dry dredge mixture.

Step 4

In another bowl, beat the two eggs until well combined.

Step 5

Dip each piece of chicken into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated, then roll it in the almond flour mixture to cover completely.

Step 6

Place the coated chicken pieces onto the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are not touching each other to allow even cooking.

Step 7

Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken poppers to help them become crispy when baked.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through. Ensure the internal temperature reaches at least 75°C (165°F).

Step 9

Once cooked, remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

Step 10

Enjoy these crispy chicken poppers as they are or with your favorite low carb dipping sauce.
