These are really delicious and don’t need to be added to a tomato sauce recipe. I make these and serve with a garlic pasta alongside.
2 lbs. ground chicken
1 cup flavored breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan or Pecorino-Romano cheese
1 egg slightly beaten
1 tsp. kosher salt
1/2 tsp. ground pepper
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees, and lightly grease or foil a baking sheet, set aside.
In a medium-sized bowl, mix all ingredients together well, with a light but thorough touch. If you mix it too much the meatballs will be tough. Shape into golf-ball sized balls (or smaller if you wish) and place on baking sheet. Place baking sheet in oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until done. If you made smaller meatballs, then adjust your cooking time.
