Chicken meatballs cooked in a creamy herb sauce, served with baby potatoes and a fresh salad.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 small onion, finely grated
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (for cooking)
  • For the creamy herb sauce:
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Sides:
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, boiled or roasted
  • Mixed greens with tomato slices + olive oil dressing

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix ground chicken, onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, paprika, salt, and pepper. Form into meatballs.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet and cook meatballs over medium heat until golden and fully cooked (about 4–5 mins per side). Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté garlic. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in milk.
  4. Simmer until sauce thickens, then stir in parmesan, parsley, salt and pepper.
  5. Return meatballs to pan and coat in sauce. Let simmer 2–3 minutes to absorb flavor.
  6. Serve hot with baby potatoes and a fresh salad.

Notes

  • Add a squeeze of lemon for brightness
  • Substitute mashed potatoes or steamed rice
  • Drizzle extra sauce over the salad for a rustic dressing
  • Use fresh herbs like dill or chives for extra aroma
  • Don’t overmix the meatball mixture for tender texture
  • Can be made ahead and reheated — perfect for meal prep
