Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Cooked chicken breast
- 0.5 cup (finely chopped) Onion
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 0.5 cup Coconut flour
- 1 cup Tapioca flour
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder (Whole30 compliant)
- 2 Eggs
- 0.25 cup Coconut milk
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a skillet over medium heat, add a teaspoon of olive oil and sauté the chopped onion and garlic until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the shredded chicken, salt, pepper, paprika, and parsley, stirring to combine. Allow it to cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour, tapioca flour, almond flour, and baking powder. Mix well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut milk, and olive oil until thoroughly combined.
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour the wet ingredients into it. Stir until a dough begins to form.
Gently fold the cooled chicken mixture into the dough until evenly distributed.
Using your hands or a tablespoon, scoop the dough and form it into small balls or mounds, setting them on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken puffs are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Allow them to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving warm.
