We’ve done quite a few different meatballs over the past couple years, but I wanted to have one in the archives that just goes with anything. These are extra basic so they can be flexible. They can be mixed with marinara sauce, or into a sub sandwich or into Asian-inspired rice bowls with a bit of fresh grated ginger and a swap of cilantro in place of the parsley. After these were cooked, we put them on a BBQ style pizza because truly, they can live anywhere.

Chicken is quite lean, so try to find a ground mix of breasts and thighs if possible.

Check the Favorite Sauces & Condiments bundle to help make a meal of these. Make some quinoa or grilled vegetables on the side, or make a meatball pizza with red sauce or pesto and mozzarella!
