Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips, approximately 1 inch wide, to form the goujons.
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly distribute the spices.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs.
Dip each chicken strip into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated.
Transfer the coated chicken strip to the almond flour and Parmesan mixture, pressing lightly to ensure the coating sticks to the chicken. Repeat with all chicken strips.
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken goujons in batches, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Do not overcrowd the pan.
Transfer the browned goujons to the prepared baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve hot, optionally with a side of low-carb dipping sauce or salad.
