Nutty, savory little chicken bites make the perfect protein addition to so many dishes or just served on their own! These are a favorite in our house, and any time I make a plate, they are polished off by my kids in minutes. Cooked in healthy oils and covered with a nutritious golden nut, egg, and cheese coating, they are a great alternative to chicken nuggets. I personally love these served over my “Lemon Parmesan Basil Kelp Noodle” recipe. (See image) These are keto-friendly, low carb, gluten-free, and packed with nutrition. This is a perfect dish for Phase 2 & 3 for Fast.Eat.Live. members.

- With a fork or just your fingers, take each chicken breast and dip into egg, then almond flour mixture, and place in hot oil in skillet. Cook for a few minutes on each side until chicken is cooked through, and crust is browned. You may need to do two batches, depending on size of your skillet.
