Instructions
- Use chicken mince (or add chicken thighs to a food processor and pulse using the s blade until roughly minced.)
- Add chicken mince to a bowl with all the meatball ingredients and use your hands to mix well.
- Rub your hands with olive oil. You need to do this to stop the meatball mixture from sticking to your hands. Roll the mixture into 12 meatballs and place them on a baking tray, or if using an air fryer place into the air fryer basket, leaving space around each meatball. Once the meatballs are on the tray / basket, spray with a generous amount of olive oil.
- Preheat the oven to oven to 200c / 180 fan or air fryer to 190C / 370F.
- Once it is hot, bake in the oven for 15 - 20 minutes, turning once in the juices or Air fry for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown on the outside and cooked through on the inside. The meatballs are done when the centre reaches a temperature of 74C or 165F.
- Mix the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl.
- Mix the salad ingredients in a mixing bowl.
- Add dressing to salad ingredients and toss to combine. Serve Greek salad in a bowl and top with chicken meatballs and optional
