Preheat the oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.
In a large mixing bowl, remove the casing from the Amylu chicken sausage and crumble the sausage meat.
Add the large egg, almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, onion powder, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper to the bowl.
Using clean hands, mix everything together thoroughly until well combined.
Form the mixture into 1-inch meatballs and place them on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the meatballs to the skillet in batches, searing them on all sides until they are golden brown, about 5 minutes.
Transfer the browned meatballs back to the baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165Β°F or 74Β°C).
Let the meatballs rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm with a sugar-free sauce or as desired.
