HEALTHY CHICKEN MEATBALLS RECIPES

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.

Steps:

• Preheat your air fryer to 390°F. Coat the basket of your air fryer lightly with olive oil.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the egg and breadcrumbs. Let sit for 2-3 minutes to soften the breadcrumbs.
• Add the remaining ingredients. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
• Use a meatballer or tablespoon to form the mixture into 1 1/2" balls. Roll the balls gently between dampened hands to shape.
• Mist the meatballs lightly with olive oil spray, then arrange them in the basket. Cook for 12 minutes, turning the meatballs halfway through the cooking process. The meatballs are done when the outside is browned and crisp and the inside reaches a temperature of 165°F.
