Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • ½ cup Panko bread crumbs
  • 1 egg white
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon parsley
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon dill weed
  • ½ cup blue cheese
  • 1 cup hot sauce (I love Frank's RedHot)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. In a medium bowl, add the chicken, Panko, egg white and all the spices and mix until combined.
  3. To stuff the meatball - I like to use a small 1" dough scoop in order to create uniform meatballs. A 1" scoop will yield approximately 24 meatballs.
  4. Grab a scoop of the mixture and using your finger, create a well for the cheese.
  5. Add about ¼ teaspoon of blue cheese to the opening and then use your fingers to close the meatball around the cheese.
  6. Roll gently to form and then place on a baking rack that's been sprayed with non-stick spray.
  7. Place the rack on a shallow baking sheet and bake in a 400 degree oven for 12 - 15 minutes.
  8. While the meatballs are cooking, heat the hot sauce and butter in a medium saucepan and stir to combine.
  9. When the meatballs are done toss in the hot sauce and serve warm.
