In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, almond flour, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape them into small patties, about 3-4 inches in diameter.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Place the chicken patties in the skillet, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. You may need to cook them in batches.
Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
While the patties are cooking, slice the tomato and red onion into thin rounds.
Optional: During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty and cover the skillet to let the cheese melt.
Remove the cooked patties from the skillet and let them rest on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
To assemble the sliders, take two large lettuce leaves for each slider to form a 'bun'.
Place one cooked chicken patty on a lettuce leaf, top with sliced tomato and onion, and then another lettuce leaf.
Serve immediately for optimal freshness and flavor.
