I made these meatballs with ground chicken and they were delicious! I also used a different type of chimichurri sauce and it was still very good.

The chimichurri sauce was a bit too spicy for me, but the meatballs were still very good.

These meatballs were a little too dry for my taste. I think I would add more liquid to the meat mixture next time.
