If you're a fan of Buffalo Chicken wings then you're going to love these. This is my version of several different recipes and I think I nailed it. Don't forget to serve with Bleu Cheese dressing, celery & carrot sticks.

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/2 c red onion, minced
3 garlic toes, minced (about 3 tbsp)
1 egg
1/4 c parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 c panko bread crumbs
1 Tbsp dried parsley
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp garlic, granulated or powdered
1 tsp onion, granulated or powdered
1/4 tsp dill weed, dried (optional)
1/4 tsp basil, dried
1/2 tsp pepper
1 lb ground chicken
4 oz block bleu, feta, mozzarella,or your favorite cheese (cut into half-inch cubes)
BUFFALO SAUCE INGREDIENTS
4 Tbsp butter (or light margarine)
1 c buffalo wing sauce
1/2 tsp garlic, granulated or powdered

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Add red onion, garlic, egg, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs and seasonings to a large bowl then stir with a fork to combine.
  • 2. Add ground chicken then mix until combined - do not over mix or the meatballs will be tough. Roll mixture into 2" balls (use a small ice cream scoop.) Press a cube of Bleu cheese into the center of each meatball then close the mixture around the cheese and seal meat together.
  • 3. Meanwhile, melt butter in saucepan over medium heat; add sauce and granulated garlic and stir to combine. Turn heat to low and simmer until sauce begins to thicken and reduce slightly.
  • 4. Place meatballs onto a buttered or sprayed cooling rack and put rack inside a baking pan; bake for 15 minutes.
  • 5. Brush the top of each meatball with the sauce and bake them another 15-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches at least 165 degrees.
  • 6. Serve with remaining sauce, Bleu Cheese dressing, celery & carrot sticks. *NOTES: You may substitute the Buffalo wing sauce with your favorite Marinara or BBQ sauce. You can omit the cheese, if desired. It still makes really good meatballs.
  • 7. *Note: These also make excellent sliders.

These meatballs were a huge hit at my last party. Everyone loved them and they were gone in minutes. I'll definitely be making them again.

I've tried a lot of different buffalo chicken meatball recipes and this one is by far the best. The meatballs are perfectly cooked and the buffalo sauce is the perfect amount of spicy.

I followed the recipe exactly but the meatballs didn't turn out as expected. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These meatballs were a bit dry for my taste. I think I should have baked them for a shorter amount of time.

I had some trouble getting the meatballs to stay together. I think I needed to add more breadcrumbs.

These meatballs are a little spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed them. Next time I'll use less buffalo sauce.

I served these meatballs with blue cheese dressing instead of ranch dressing. It was a great combination.

I added some chopped celery and carrots to the meatballs for extra flavor.

I've made these meatballs with both ground chicken and ground turkey. They're great either way.

These meatballs are a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have a few cooked chicken breasts in the freezer and this is a great way to use them up.
