Instructions:
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the Fathead Dough: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the cheeses are melted and well combined.
Mix the Dough: In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, eggs, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the melted cheese mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. It should be smooth and slightly sticky.
Form the Squares: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a rectangle, about ¼ inch thick. Use a knife or pizza cutter to cut the dough into squares, making sure they are all roughly the same size.
Add the Chicken: Place a small amount of cooked chicken breast in the center of each dough square.
Fold and Seal: Fold each dough square over the chicken to form a triangle or rectangle shape, depending on your preference. Use your fingers or a fork to press the edges together and seal the seams.
Bake: Place the chicken squares on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Serve: Remove the chicken squares from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Optionally, serve with marinara sauce or ranch dressing for dipping.
