These Baked Chicken Parmesan Meatballs have so much flavor we ate them plain. The grandkids ate theirs with BBQ sauce. However, feel free to add them to your favorite dish, with your favorite sauce or eat them right out of the oven like we did.

  4. Another of your recipes I’ll have to try! I’ve never seen ground chicken in our grocery stores, so I may have to substitute ground turkey. Do you think that would work?

    • They turned out fantastic. I had ground chicken in the freezer and the grandkids were here so luckily this was a huge success! I think next time I will shape them into patties, that’s what I usually do but decided to try them as meatballs…winner winner chicken dinner!

  8. Or make a sandwich out of them (if your mouth is wide enough – if not, slice ’em in half) … I told you my grandma’s neighbor always brought down a big pot of spaghetti and meatballs whenever we visited her. I took my meatballs and put them on a cheesy kaiser roll (kaiser rolls are a Canadian treat, and are like a crusty baguette, a hard shell and soft inside and messy to eat and these were cheesy with the hunks of cheddar cheese baked right in … then put the meatballs in between with some tomato sauce – oh such joy for the mouth. 🙂

  24. This is probably weird of me, but I’ve never thought of chicken meatballs, probably because I’ve never bought ground chicken. I have made turkey meatballs, however. I wonder which is healthier: chicken or turkey. Do you happen to know offhand?
