Preheat your oven to 200Β°C (400Β°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken breast fillets into thin strips, approximately 1-2cm wide, to form goujons.
In a shallow bowl, mix together the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
In another bowl, beat the eggs until well mixed.
Dip each chicken strip first into the beaten eggs, allowing the excess to drip off, and then coat it thoroughly with the almond flour mixture. Press lightly to ensure the coating adheres well.
Place each coated chicken goujon on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly spray the top of the chicken goujons with coconut oil or olive oil spray to promote crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, turning halfway through, until the goujons are golden brown and the chicken is fully cooked.
Remove from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy chicken goujons with a side salad or your favorite low-carb dipping sauce.
