Ingredients

Serves/makes 15

1 1/4lb ground chicken (or turkey)

2 tablespoons dried chives

1 teaspoon garlic powder

2 teaspoons Italian seasoning (optional)

3/4 cup shredded Parmesan

60g (or ~6 tablespoons) panko (or gluten free bread crumbs)

pinch of sea salt & pepper

1.
Set oven to 420F/216C.
2.
Add all the ingredients for the chicken meatballs to a large bowl. Thoroughly mix together, then form meatballs. Note: lean ground meat tends to be very sticky so I like to spray my hands with a little olive oil while rolling the meatballs so they are easier to make.
3.
Place the meatballs on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and make sure they have space.
4.
Bake in the oven for NO MORE than 12 minutes. I bake mine for 8 – 10 minutes at 420F. Set aside once finished.

Meatballs are kinda lame, should add an egg for richness. Pasta that goes with this makes way too much pasta
