Ingredients

Meatballs
  • 2 pounds ground chicken
  • 1 cup (108 g) plain panko
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • ½ cup (56.5 g) cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 3 tablespoons dry Ranch seasoning
  • ½ cup (136.5 g) buffalo sauce, divided

  • 1 tablespoon Canola oil, for pan-frying

Instructions

Meatballs
    Cup of Yum
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. To a large bowl, add ground chicken, panko, beaten eggs, shredded cheese, ranch seasoning, ¼ cup buffalo sauce, and garlic powder. Mix together until just combined, being careful not to overwork the ingredients.
  3. Greasing hands before starting, form one heaping tablespoon of the mixture into meatballs. Place onto the lined baking sheet.
  4. To a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, add oil and butter. Once hot, working in batches to not overcrowd the pan, place the meatballs in the skillet. Cook until the outsides are browned and they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
  5. Add all meatballs back to pan (if you had to work in batches) and stir in the remaining buffalo sauce, coating well.
  6. Serve topped with optional blue cheese crumbles, ranch dressing, and green onions.

Notes

  • Oven Instructions
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Then, roll the meatballs and place them on the lined baking sheet. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until they have reached an internal temperature of 165°F.
