keto Chicken bliss bombs!!

Ingredients:

• 500g ground chicken
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 cup almond flour
• 1 egg
• 2 tbsp cream cheese (softened)
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional)
• 2 tbsp olive oil or butter (for greasing or pan-frying)

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven (Optional):
   • If baking, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
2. Prepare the Mixture:
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, mozzarella, Parmesan, almond flour, cream cheese, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and parsley.
   • Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
3. Shape the Bombs:
   • Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and roll it into small balls. Repeat until all the mixture is used.
4. Cook the Bombs:
   • Option 1: Bake
     Place the chicken balls on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
   • Option 2: Pan-Fry
     Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken balls in batches, turning occasionally, for 8-10 minutes or until browned and fully cooked.
5. Serve:
   • Let the bliss bombs cool slightly before serving. Pair with a dipping sauce like sugar-free ranch, garlic aioli, or marinara for extra flavor.

Tips:

• Add finely chopped jalapeños or chili flakes for a spicy kick.
• Serve as a snack, appetizer, or side dish with a fresh salad.
