    • Honey BBQ Sauce
      • 1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
      • 2 tbsp. honey
      • 3/4 cup BBQ sauce
    • Baked Chicken Meatballs
      • 1 pound ground chicken
      • 1/2 tsp. paprika, smoked or regular
      • 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
      • 1/2 tsp. salt
      • 1 tsp. dried parsley
      • 3 cloves garlic, minced
      • 1/4 cup grated onion
      • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
      • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
      • 2 eggs
    03 Method
    • Step 1
      Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper and spray generously with cooking spray.
    • Step 2
      Add eggs to a large mixing bowl and whisk until light and creamy. Add panko, Parmesan, grated onion, garlic, parsley, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Using your hands (or with a wooden spoon), mix together all of the ingredients until evenly combined.
    • Step 3
      Using a 2-tbsp capacity cookie scoop, form meatballs and place them evenly spaced onto the prepared baking sheet.
    • Step 4
      Bake for 22-24 minutes, or until the center reach 165°F. Towards the end of the cook time, add the BBQ sauce, honey, and apple cider vinegar to a small saucepan set over low heat. Whisk as the mixture simmers until heated throughout.
    • Step 5
      Once fully cooked, let the meatballs cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Gently release them from the foil/paper if they stick a bit. Serve with a drizzle of honey BBQ sauce over top, or toss the meatballs in the sauce.
