POPPY SEED CHICKEN BASEBALLS WEIGHT WATCHERS STYLE

Poppy Seed Chicken Baseballs Weight Watchers Style image

This is a variation on the popular, Weight Watchers cult-like recipe, Chicken Baseballs. I am told the basic recipe is 8 points per serving. Paired with a green salad, this makes a fantastic dinner. I tried this variation based on an old, but very high fat recipe that my family loved - This lighter recipe really tastes great, and the kids love it, too!

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

3 ounces light cream cheese, softened
2 teaspoons light margarine or 2 teaspoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons poppy seeds
2 tablespoons nonfat milk
2 cups cooked chicken breasts, cut up
1 (8 ounce) can refrigerated reduced-fat crescent rolls
8 Ritz crackers, crushed

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Add cream cheese, margarine, salt, pepper, milk, and poppy seeds in small bowl. Microwave for about 30 seconds and stir.
Pour mixture over cooked, finely cubed chicken and stir.
Divide chicken mixture into 4 portions.
Separate dough into four rectangles, careful to seal perforations. Two triangles will make up each rectangle.
Lay each rectangle over a pinch of the cracker crumbs to keep them from sticking to your work surface, then add 1/4 of the chicken into the middle of each, pull up the corners, then seal the edges to make a "baseball" shape. Then sprinkle a small amount of cracker crumbs over the entire area of the dough, and place seam side down on parchment lined cookie sheet, or an ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly browned.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cooked and diced
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can low-fat condensed cream of chicken soup
1 cup low-fat sour cream
1/2 cup diced onion
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
4 ounces low-fat Ritz crackers (about 20)
2 tablespoons poppy seeds

Steps:

Combine chicken, soup, sour cream, diced onion and poultry seasoning in a baking dish. Crush Ritz crackers and combine with poppy seeds; sprinkle evenly over the top of the casserole. Bake in preheated 350°F oven 15-20 minutes until heated through.

Tips:

Use a large mixing bowl to combine the chicken, bread crumbs, eggs, Parmesan cheese, poppy seeds, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly combined.
Shape the chicken mixture into 1-inch balls. Make sure to pack the mixture tightly so that the meatballs hold their shape when cooking.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken meatballs and cook until they are browned on all sides. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Add the chicken broth and water to the skillet. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the chicken meatballs are cooked through.
Serve the chicken meatballs hot with your favorite sides. Some popular options include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a side salad.

Conclusion:

Poppy Seed Chicken Baseballs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken meatballs are moist and flavorful, and the poppy seeds add a nice crunch. This dish is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. Serve the chicken meatballs with your favorite sides for a complete meal.
