Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

cooking spray
2 eggs, lightly beaten
¼ cup sour cream
⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pound ground chicken
½ (4 ounce) packet saltine crackers, crushed, or more as needed
1 (28 ounce) jar marinara sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking pan with cooking spray; line with foil.
  • Whisk eggs and sour cream in a large bowl until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper; stir to combine. Add chicken; mix with your hands until well combined. Mix in crushed crackers until you can form a ball with the mixture. Use your hands to roll into 8 to 10 equal-sized meatballs; place in the prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of each meatball should read at least 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).
  • Place marinara sauce in a medium saucepan; add meatballs and simmer over low heat until warm, about 10 minutes.

These meatballs were a complete disaster. They fell apart when I tried to cook them and they tasted terrible. I would not recommend this recipe.

These meatballs were a little too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I'll probably make them again with less cayenne pepper.

I'm not a big fan of chicken meatballs, but these were actually really good. I'll definitely be making them again.

I made these meatballs for my family and they loved them! They're so easy to make and they're a great way to use up leftover chicken.

These meatballs were delicious! I used ground turkey instead of chicken and they turned out great. I also added some chopped red bell pepper for extra flavor.

I've tried many chicken meatball recipes but this one is by far the best. The meatballs are so flavorful and the cheese adds a nice touch. I love that they're baked instead of fried, which makes them a healthier option.

These chicken meatballs were a hit! I made them for a party and they were gone in minutes. The combination of spices and cheese was perfect and the meatballs were so moist and juicy. I will definitely be making these again!
