Harissa Chicken Meatballs
Report
These Harissa Chicken Meatballs are a fun twist on meatballs. Plus, they’re low- carb, grain-free, and gluten-free since I use cauliflower rice instead of breadcrumbs.

Ingredients
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 cup cauliflower frozen, riced
- 1/4 cup onion chopped
- 1/4 cup parsley packed, chopped
- 3 garlic minced, large, peeled cloves
- 1 egg large
- olive oil cooking spray
- 2 jars (10 oz each prepared mild harissa sauce (I love Mina Harissa))
Instructions
- Place chicken in a large mixing bowl, break- up slightly. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and smoked paprika.
- Add frozen cauliflower, parsley, onion, garlic, and egg and mix just until ingredients are combined. Avoid over-mixing. Divide chicken mixture into 16 portions ( about 1 1/4 ounce each); gently shape into balls.
- Heat a heavy-duty non-stick large skillet (with tall sides) over medium-high heat.
- Spray with olive oil cooking spray, add meatballs and cook, turning occasionally to brown on all sides, about 6 minutes.
- Pour in harissa and allow mixture to reach a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low and continue to simmer for 20 to 25 minutes.
Notes
- Refrigerate up to 4 days. Freeze up to 6 months.
