Description

Small, juicy meatballs with a sticky, sweet-spicy glaze, perfect for a quick meal or party snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix until well combined.
  3. Form the mixture into meatballs and place them on a baking sheet.
  4. Bake meatballs for 20-25 minutes until cooked through.
  5. In a small saucepan, combine sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, and sriracha. Heat over medium heat until hot.
