Sweet Potato Chicken Poppers
Report
These Sweet Potato Chicken Poppers are a great AIP appetizer or sneaky way to get your kids to eat vegetables. Either way, they are delicious. This recipe fits the whole30, paleo and aip diets.

Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cups sweet potatoes or yams I prefer yam as they aren’t quite as sweet, about 1 medium yam, peeled and chopped
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 3 tablespoons tapioca flour
- 2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Rub the olive oil over a large baking sheet and then set aside.
- Add the sweet potatoes to a high-speed blender or food processor then blend until about the size of rice.
- Add the sweet potatoes along with the chicken, tapioca flour, garlic powder, onion powder and salt to a large mixing bowl.
- Using your hands or a spoon, mix until completely combined. To form the poppers, roll them into a ball then flatten until they are about 1 inch thick and in the shape of an egg. They should look like chicken nuggets. Place the finished poppers on the baking sheet.
- Place the entire baking sheet into the oven for 40 minutes, flipping halfway. Once finished, remove the oven and serve immediately.
Notes
- You’ll need a large baking sheet for this recipe.
- You can use sweet potato for this recipe but I prefer yam. It’s less sweet and has less moisture.
- I used this tapioca starch for the recipe.
- I used the Simply Organics garlic and onion powder. It’s high quality and the only brand I use.
