Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice each chicken breast into strips approximately 1 inch wide to create the goujons.
In a shallow bowl, mix together almond flour, Parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
In another shallow bowl, beat the egg until well mixed.
Dip each chicken strip into the beaten egg, ensuring it's fully coated, then dredge it through the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly so the coating adheres well.
Place the coated chicken strips on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken strips to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake the chicken goujons in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, turning them over halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your low-carb baked chicken goujons with your favorite dipping sauces or a side salad.
