We loved this recipe and hope you will too! 




ITALIAN CHICKEN MEATBALLS WITH MOZZARELLA
1 pound ground chicken
2 T. Italian seasoning
1 t. coarse ground black pepper
¾ t. salt
½ t. cayenne pepper
½ tsp red pepper flakes
4 cloves garlic, grated
1 cup Italian bread crumbs
cup Parmesan cheese
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 T. olive oil

Marinara Sauce


Combine all of the ingredients except the marinara sauce in a large bowl. Shape gently, but firmly into meatballs and sauté in olive oil until browned and heated through, for about 15-25 minutes, over medium to low heat. Keep covered until ready to serve.  Serve over pasta and top with a good Marinara sauce and grated Parmesan cheese.
