Buffalo Chicken Meatballs


1 lb. ground white meat chicken
1/2 small onion, grated
2 cloves garlic, grated
1/2 cup parsley, chopped
to taste: salt, freshly ground black pepper
enough: olive oil, for drizzling
2 tbsp. butter or margarine
1/2 cup hot sauce (such as Frank's®)

      Heat oven to 400ºF (205ºC).  In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken with onion, garlic and parsley; season with salt and pepper.  Flatten meat in bowl, score into 4 portions, using side of a hand.  Shape each portion into 4 balls, making 16 total.  Arrange meatballs on a nonstick sheet pan and drizzle them oil.  Place in oven, bake until meatballs are cooked through and golden brown, about 10 - 12 minutes.  While meatballs bake, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.  Add hot sauce and whisk to combine.  Toss baked meatballs in hot sauce to coat.  Serve with blue cheese, carrots, and celery sticks as an appetizer (or can serve over rice as a meal).  Makes 4 servings.
