Ingredients

  • chicken breast - 1020g
  • onion - 1 small (60g)
  • garlic - 1 head (30g)
  • eggs - 2 large (100g)
  • bread crumbs - 113g
  • sea salt - 2 tsp (12g)
  • black pepper - 0.5 tsp, ground (1.2g)
  • paprika - 1 tsp (2.3g)
  • turmeric - 1 tsp (3g)
  • dried rosemary - 2 tsp (2.4g)
  • extra virgin olive oil - 2 tbsp (27g)
  • parsley - 1 bunch (10g)

Cooking steps

1.) Begin by giving your chicken breast a refreshing wash, and then let the magic happen as we transform it through the trusty meat grinder.

2.) Finely chop the onions, garlic, and fresh green parsley, then blend them seamlessly into the finely ground meat mixture.

3.) Now, into the finely minced meat, we introduce two eggs, along with a tantalizing blend of salt, pepper, sweet paprika, rosemary, and the golden touch of turmeric.

4.) We thoroughly blend the mixture and gradually add breadcrumbs until we achieve a harmonious and uniform consistency.

5.) We shape these delectable meatballs and lovingly arrange them on a baking tray lined with baking paper.

6.) We place the meatballs in the preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes.

7.) After 30 minutes, we lovingly retrieve the meatballs from the oven and present them alongside a velvety potato mash or a sizzling sautéed pea side dish.
