Notes
These chicken meatballs go with just about anything! We like to serve them in a bowl with rice + veggies and a drizzle of some sort of sauce, such as Japanese BBQ, this easy garlic dressing, or a dollop of tzatziki. Lots of other options in the blog post above.
For more browning on the outside of the meatballs, spritz with oil spray before cooking.
