How to Make Bbq Chicken Meatballs
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, gently combine 1.5 lbs ground chicken, 1 cup breadcrumbs, 1 large egg, 1 tbsp BBQ seasoning, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Roll the mixture into 24 meatballs (approximately 1.5 inches in diameter).
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat with cooking spray. Brown the meatballs in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan, for about 2-3 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
- Transfer the browned meatballs to a greased 9x9-inch baking dish.
- Pour 1.5 cups of your favorite BBQ sauce over the meatballs, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Bake uncovered for 10-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 170°F (77°C).
- Serve immediately, garnished with extra BBQ sauce and your favorite sides (coleslaw, potato salad, etc.)
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
