Basic Chicken Meatballs

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 22 minutes
Servings: 22 Meatballs
Chicken meatballs are wonderful for so many recipes! They are a great alternative option for any recipe that calls for ground chicken or they are an excellent substitution for any chicken burger recipe. You can make little chicken meatball sliders in place of a chicken burger and cover each slider with a different sauce to give your guests or family different options to make any gathering or family dinner more exciting! You can serve your meatball sliders with your friends or family’s favorite condiments. Having everyone's favorite sauces or condiments is helpful for those picky eaters, chicken has a very mild flavor, and having a bunch of different options always eases those situations.
The one thing that I’ve heard when talking about my chicken meatball recipe is that they must be dry – not the case! The key is making sure you use the right ratio of eggs to breadcrumbs. It's also important not to overcook them As long as you've got those two things down, they’ll turn out amazing every time.
