Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Chicken breast
- 100 grams Cream cheese
- 80 grams Almond flour
- 100 grams Grated mozzarella cheese
- 30 grams Butter
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 Egg
- 2 stalks Green onions
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken breast into small, thin pieces suitable for mixing with dough. Set aside.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the grated mozzarella cheese and butter. Microwave on high for about 1 minute or until melted. Stir to combine.
Add the almond flour and cream cheese to the melted cheese mixture. Stir until well combined.
Place the dough on a piece of parchment paper and press into a flat sheet. Add the chicken pieces over the dough evenly.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Pour over the chicken.
Using the parchment paper, gently roll the dough to enclose the chicken filling. Slice the roll into 2 cm thick mini pao pieces.
Arrange the mini pao pieces on the prepared baking sheet.
Beat the egg and brush the top of each mini pao with it for a nice golden finish.
Finely chop the green onions and sprinkle over the top of the mini paos.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your keto-friendly mini chicken pao!
