Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground chicken
- 50 grams Almond flour
- 30 grams Grated parmesan cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Finely mince the garlic cloves and chop the fresh parsley.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, almond flour, grated parmesan, egg, minced garlic, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Mix the mixture well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined. The mixture should be firm enough to hold shape when formed into balls.
Step 5
Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form the mixture into approximately 20 small balls and place them on a plate.
Step 6
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken balls in batches and sear each side for about 2-3 minutes until they are golden brown.
Step 7
Transfer the skillet with the chicken balls into the preheated oven. Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken balls reaches 165°F (74°C).
Step 8
Once baked, remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken balls rest for a few minutes.
Step 9
Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
Step 10
Serve warm with your choice of low-carb dipping sauce or a side of vegetables.
