Instructions

1 In a large bowl combine ground chicken, bread crumbs, yellow onions, jalapeno,
eggs, peppers, garlic powder, red pepper, and fresh basil. Stir until well
combined.
2 Using your hands scoop out enough ground chicken mixture to create a 1-inch
ball. Roll the ball in your hands. Once you have a firm ball, set the ball on a
plate to the side. Continue to do this until you have used up all the ground
chicken mixture. You should be able to create 12, 1-inch balls.
3 Now heat a large stovetop pan to medium heat. Once the pan is hot add your oil
to the pan. Then add your chicken meatballs to the pan. Cook the chicken
meatballs for about 6 minutes, rolling the balls to another side after every 2
minutes. This should allow you to get a nice golden color around the meatballs.
4 After 6 minutes of browning the meatballs, cover the pan with a lid and turn the
heat down to medium-low and cook for another 5 minutes, turning the meatballs
halfway through.
5 Once the meatballs are cooked through, remove from heat and serve! You can enjoy
these on their own or serve them with your favorite sauce. I love these with my
simple tomato sauce.
