Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized pan, cook the chicken breast over medium heat until fully cooked, about 10 minutes. Shred the chicken once cooled and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the cream cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir and microwave for an additional 30 seconds until melted and smooth.
Add the almond flour and baking powder to the cheese mixture, stirring until thoroughly combined.
Beat the egg in a small bowl and add it to the dough mixture. Mix well until a dough forms.
Mix in the shredded chicken, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly distributed.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the puffs are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Keto Chicken Puffs hot or at room temperature.
