Try my Delicious Sweet Potato Chicken Poppers for a healthy alternative to chicken nuggets! These easy chicken poppers are made with simple ingredients, take less than 30 minutes to make, and are gluten-free, Whole30, and Paleo approved!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1ย lb ground chicken (uncooked)
  • 2 cups uncooked sweet potato, shredded (I use this affordable food processor)
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour (I recommend this one)
  • 1 tbspย garlic powder
  • 1 tbspย onion powder
  • 2 tsp parsley
  • 1 tspย sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1–2 dashes of hot sauce (if desired)
  • Parchment paper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 Fahrenheit and line a large baking sheet with good quality parchment paper like this one.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, shredded sweet potatoes, coconut flour, and seasonings until well combined.
  • Next, create your sweet potato chicken poppers using this medium cookie scoop and place on a large baking sheet evenly spaced apart. Using your hands smooth out each chicken popper and slightly flatten the top to form a similar shape to a chicken nugget. I usually can make about 30 sweet potato chicken poppers per batch.
  • Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, turning over half way until fully cooked and slightly golden. I usually do mine for 12 minutes on each side and they come out perfect!
  • Remove your chicken poppers from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
  • These sweet potato chicken poppers pair perfectly with this Whole30 approved guacamole and my favorite Whole30 ranchย and Whole30 barbecue sauce.

Notes

These Sweet Potato Chicken Poppers are great for healthy meal prepping and it’s so easy to double the batch and freeze extra! Allow the chicken poppers to fully cool before placing in a freezer-safe ziploc bag(s) or container and freezing. To re-heat from frozen, simply pop them in the microwave for 1 minute and enjoy!
