How to Make Chicken Romano Meatballs

Ingredients:

1 pound ground chicken
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/3 cup Romano cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 shallot, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced (for the sauce)
1/2 cup dry white wine, like Chardonnay
1 cup chicken stock
1 lemon, sliced

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
In a bowl, mix the ground chicken with 2 minced garlic cloves, egg, bread crumbs, Romano cheese, parsley, dried basil, oregano, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Use your hands to mix until just combined.
Shape the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.
Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add some olive oil.
Place the meatballs in the skillet in a single layer. Brown them on all sides for about 5 to 6 minutes and then transfer them to a plate.
In the same skillet, add the diced shallots and 2 minced garlic cloves. Cook until softened.
Stir in the white wine and let it simmer for 2 minutes.
Add the sliced lemons and chicken stock to the skillet. Return the meatballs to the pan.
Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
Serve your Chicken Romano Meatballs on sandwiches, over pasta, with rice, or alongside your favorite vegetables.

How to Serve Chicken Romano Meatballs

You can serve Chicken Romano Meatballs in various ways. They work great as a main dish over pasta or rice. You can also place them in a sandwich with some sauce for a tasty treat. They are perfect for any meal and can be enjoyed with a side salad or some steamed veggies for a balanced dinner.

How to Store Chicken Romano Meatballs

To store leftovers, let the Chicken Romano Meatballs cool completely. Place them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can last for about 3 to 4 days. If you want to keep them longer, you can freeze them. Just make sure to separate layers with parchment paper in a freezer-safe container, and they will last for up to 3 months.

Tips to Make Chicken Romano Meatballs

Don’t overmix the ingredients: Mixing just until combined helps keep the meatballs tender.
Add your favorite herbs: Feel free to experiment with different herbs to customize the flavor.
Use a meat thermometer: Ensure the meatballs are cooked through by checking they reach 165 degrees F.

Variation

You can swap the ground chicken for ground turkey for a different taste. If you like it spicy, add more crushed red pepper flakes to enhance the heat. You can also use fresh herbs instead of dried ones for a fresher flavor.
