Chicken Meatballs image

I wanted to make chicken meatballs for quite some time and was never able to find a good recipe. I came across one, but modified it based on my own preferences. I thought these came our absolutely delicious and served them with pasta and marinara sauce and homemade garlic bread!

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound ground chicken
1 egg, beaten
¼ cup low-fat cream cheese
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
4 cloves garlic, grated
1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon dry bread crumbs
2 teaspoons chopped fresh basil
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon dried parsley
½ teaspoon dried oregano
1 cup chopped fresh mozzarella, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Combine chicken, egg, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic, olive oil, bread crumbs, basil, red pepper, garlic powder, salt, pepper, parsley, and oregano in a freezer-safe bowl and mix well. Place in the freezer for 15 minutes to make the mixture firmer and easier to handle.
  • Use an ice cream scoop or cookie scoop to form the mixture into about 14 meatballs a little larger than a golf ball. Add a piece of mozzarella cheese to the center of each meatball, making sure cheese is covered by meat. Place meatballs on a nonstick baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes.
