Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil and lightly spray with olive oil spray.
Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes for bite-sized pieces and set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
In another bowl, beat the egg until well combined.
Dip each chicken piece into the beaten egg, ensuring it is fully coated, then transfer it to the almond flour mixture and press to adhere the coating completely.
Place the coated chicken pieces onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart to allow for even cooking.
Once all chicken pieces are coated and placed on the baking sheet, spray the tops lightly with olive oil spray to enhance crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, turning halfway through the baking time, until the chicken bites are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your crispy, low-carb chicken mini bites with your favorite dipping sauce!
