Time 40m

Yield 14 meatballs

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lb ground chicken
1 large egg, beaten
½ cup panko breadcrumbs
½ cup grated parmesan cheese
½ cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
pasta, cooked, for serving
sauce of choice, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and golden brown, about 7 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until aromatic, about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and let the onion mixture cool to room temperature.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg, panko, Parmesan, parsley, salt, pepper, and the onion mixture and use your hands to mix until just combined.
  • Roll the chicken mixture into 1½-inch balls and place on the prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
  • Bake the meatballs until browned and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Serve with pasta and sauce of your choice.
  • Enjoy!
