There's lots of fun varieties of Ground Chicken Meatballs, but I'd have to say this pizza version is one of my favs. Savory, cheesy, delish!
Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • 1 lb. Ground Chicken
  • 15 Pepperoni Slices, chopped
  • ½ cup Seasoned Bread Crumbs
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 tsp. Dried Oregano
  • ½ tsp. Garlic Powder
  • ½ tsp. Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp. Fennel Seeds
  • ¼ tsp. Salt
  • 1 tbsp. Olive Oil
  • ⅓ cup Grated Parmesan
  • 6 Provolone Slices, cut into squares
  • Marinara Sauce, for dipping
Instructions
  1. Grab a large baking sheet (and line with parchment paper if preferred). Preheat the oven to 425F.
  2. Add all ingredients, except for the provolone and marinara, to a large bowl. Mix together until combined.
  3. Form the chicken pizza mixture into 2-inch round meatballs and then stuff each one with your desired amount of cheese, making sure to seal the meatball back together before placing on the baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 10 minutes. Pull back out and top each meatball with a small slice of cheese. Continue baking for another 8 - 10 minutes, or until the cheese on top is golden.
  5. Serve marinara or your favorite pizza dipping sauce.
