Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken breast, panko breadcrumbs, soy sauce, egg white, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and chopped parsley.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly using a wooden spoon or your hands until well combined and holding together.
Lightly spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray to prevent the chicken balls from sticking.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, measure and form the chicken mixture into small balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter.
Place the chicken balls evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly brush the balls with olive oil to enhance the crispiness during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked through (check an internal temperature of 74°C or 165°F).
Carefully remove the chicken balls from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce or side salad for a complete meal.
