Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Chicken breast
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 4 large Egg
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 5 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken breast into small, bite-size pieces, roughly the size of nuggets. Season with salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour and baking powder. Stir to mix well.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, and then add 3 tablespoons of melted butter and heavy cream. Whisk until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the almond flour mixture and stir until a dough forms.
Using a large spoon, scoop out portions of dough and shape into small rounds or biscuits on the lined baking sheet. You should form about 8-10 small biscuits.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Assemble the chicken minis by slicing each biscuit carefully in half, placing a piece of cooked chicken inside each, then close the biscuit.
Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and brush over the tops of each mini for added flavor.
Serve the keto chicken minis warm and enjoy as a perfect keto-friendly breakfast or snack.
