Instructions

  1. Peel and chop the onion finely.
  2. Add it to a mixing bowl together with the chicken mince, breadcrumbs, salt, egg, pepper, paprika and chopped dill.
  3. Mix everything well to get a paste.
  4. Use your hands to shape balls out of the mixture, I got 20 meatballs.
  5. Arrange the meatballs in the air fryer ( mine is Tefal duo air fryer and I used both drawers).
  6. Air fry them at 200 degrees Celsius ( 390 Fahrenheit) for 15 minutes, shaking the drawers half the way through.

Notes

  • Shaping the mixture into meatballs is much easier if you wet your hands often, I usually just keep a bowl of cold water next to me and dip the hands when the mixture start feeling sticky, it makes such a difference and the meatballs have a good round shape.
  • The onion can also be blended to a mushy texture for the meatballs, if you don't want to chop it - I haven't even bothered to do it too finely anyway, although when it does cook well and you can't feel it in the meatballs.
  • I have Tefal Duo Air Fryer, so I can used both drawers to cook the meatballs, if you have a smaller air fryer, I would recommend cooking the meatballs in batches to avoid overcrowding.
