Once you try these, you'll never go back to beef meatballs.(Well, maybe YOU will!) I searched all over the Internet for chicken meatballs, and found these on . The texture is much lighter than regular meatballs,and they are downright tasty! Haven't used beef for spaghetti since,and I found this over 2 years ago. The recipe also came with a sauce, but I figured that everyone has their own favorite marinara sauce already. Enjoy! Ingredients:
1 lb ground chicken |
1 egg |
1/2 cup parmesan cheese |
1/2 cup breadcrumbs |
2 cloves garlic, minced |
2 teaspoons fresh oregano (or the equivalent dried) |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
Directions:
1. Place ground chicken,egg,1/2 cup Parmesan,bread crumbs, garlic,oregano and 1/2 tsp salt in a medium bowl.
2. Knead mixture together with hand till evenly combined.
3. Form mixture into 1-inch balls.
4. In large non-stick skillet,warm olive oil over high heat.
5. Place meatballs in pan,up to 8 at a time,and cook until all sides are browned,approximately 8 minutes for each meatball.
6. Remove with slotted spoon,and add to your favorite spaghetti sauce.
