Ingredients

1 pound ground chicken
1/2 panko breadcrumbs
5 tablespoons BBQ sauce (plus more for topping)
3 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon powder
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Cooking spray so the meatballs don’t stick to the baking rack.

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Add a cooling rack to a foil lined baking sheet and spray with cooking spray.

2. Add the ground chicken to a large bowl.

3. In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, smoked paprika, chicken bouillon, salt, pepper, and onion powder.

4. Pour the spice blend over the ground chicken and mix well. Add in the 5 tablespoons of BBQ sauce, Worcestershire sauce, egg, and panko and mix until well combined.

5. Form medium sized meatballs and place on the rack on the baking sheet. Don’t make the meatballs too large or they won’t cook all the way through. Spoon a bit more BBQ sauce over top each meatball. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until internal temperature is 165 degrees.

Serve with more BBQ sauce.
