Easy Chicken Meatballs
Report
These baked chicken meatballs will surprise and delight you! Not only are they juicy and super flavorful, but I serve them up with the best homemade chimichurri sauce in the video below. Give it a watch to see how this easy recipe comes together!

Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds ground chicken
- 1 large egg
- ½ small onion finely chopped
- ¼ cup almond flour
- ¼ cup finely grated fresh Parmesan
- ¼ cup roughly chopped fresh parsley
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- Optional: serve with chimichurri sauce
Instructions
- Mix the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, combine the chicken, egg, onion, almond flour, parmesan, parsley, garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano. Using your hands, mix the ingredients together until well combined.
- Scoop and roll. Measure out 1 ½ tablespoons of the mixture (or use a medium cookie scoop) and roll the mixture between your hands, forming about 30 meatballs.
- Bake until browned. Place the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20 to 22 minutes, until lightly browned on the outside and cooked through (to 165°F on an instant-read thermometer). Avoid overbaking them, so that they stay juicy.
- Serve. Enjoy the chicken meatballs on their own, or serve with chimichurri sauce, if you'd like.

Notes
- Try to not over mix the the ingredients or compact the balls too tightly when scooping, as this will make them more dense.
