My boyfriend Matt absolutely loves these chicken meatballs and whenever ground chicken is on sale, he will buy pounds of ground chicken specifically for me to make him this recipe. I will be honest, I do not really measure my spices while cooking and usually I will throw in whatever we have laying around so each recipe is slightly different but equally as good.
Classy Chicken Meatballs
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 egg
- Salt and Pepper
- Hefty heaping of Italian Spices
- Garlic and Onion Powder
- 1/4 cup Italian Cheese (I like using Asiago or Parmasean)
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (You need enough until mixture comes together, may not need all of it)
Directions:
1. Completely defrost chicken and season with italian seasoning, garlic, onion, pepper and salt. Add egg and half of breadcrumbs.
2. Mix all ingredients until well-combined. If it is still wet, add more breadcrumbs and mix again. Wet hands and roll into 1 to 2 inch balls. Heat a large skillet with some olive oil.
3. Add meatballs to skillet and brown evenly. Once evenly browned, add your favorite tomato sauce and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes. I like to throw in chunks of fresh mozzarella so they get all melty and gooey and delicious. Throw in with your favorite spaghetti and be happy.
