Ingredients
- 1 lb. ground chicken
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
- ½ cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp. milk
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 2 tbsp. fresh parsley chopped
- 2 tbsp. fresh dill chopped
- ½ tsp. salt
- ½ tsp. pepper
Instructions
- To a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients.
- Using clean hands mix everything together to combine and evenly incorporate all of the ingredients.
- Form meatballs to your desired size. I suggest using a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop if you have one, to help with forming evenly sized meatballs. Repeat until all of the mixture is used up.
- To a large deep skillet, add 1 tablespoon of oil. Add chicken meatballs, be careful not to overcrowd the pan. You will most likely have to work in stages.
- Cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F.
- Continue until all chicken meatballs are cooked.
