Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients:
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
  • 2 cloves garlic minced

Instructions
 

  • Cooking Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, minced garlic, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix until everything is well incorporated.
  • Form the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and olive oil together. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, carefully add the meatballs to the skillet.
  • Sear the meatballs for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they're golden brown. You may need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
  • Once seared, transfer the meatballs back to the baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they're cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Serve warm with your choice of sides or sauces.
