Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken breast
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes to create mini bites.
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
In a separate small bowl, beat the egg.
Dip each chicken piece in the beaten egg, making sure it’s fully coated.
Then roll the egg-coated chicken in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere the flour to the chicken.
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Once hot, place a few chicken pieces in the skillet, being careful not to overcrowd, and fry until golden brown on each side, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Transfer the browned chicken bites to the prepared baking sheet.
Once all chicken bites are browned and on the baking sheet, bake them in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until they are fully cooked through and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let them cool for a minute before serving.
Enjoy your Paleo Crispy Chicken Mini Bites with a paleo-friendly dipping sauce of choice!
