Key Ingredients to make Chicken Piccata Meatballs
– Ground chicken – Parmesan cheese – Panko breadcrumbs – Salt – Garlic – Lemon zest – Olive oil – Butter – Garlic – Flour – Chicken broth – Capers – Lemon juice
In a large bowl, mix together chicken, parmesan, panko, salt, garlic, and lemon zest. Using 2 tbsp of meat, roll into balls.
To make this dish, heat a large sauté pan with oil over medium-high heat. Cook meatballs for 6 minutes, turning occasionally, and then remove them from the pan.
In the same pan, add butter and garlic, and whisk in flour. Gradually add chicken broth, capers, brine, and lemon juice, and simmer for 6-7 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Return the meatballs to the pan and cook for an additional 5-6 minutes. Serve the meatballs with the sauce over pasta, rice, or on their own.
