Ingredients

• 1 lb ground chicken breast
• 1/2 cups Italian breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°. Prepare 2 baking sheets by lining with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients. Mix well, do not over mix or you will have tough meatballs. Using a 1 tablespoon scoop, scoop out meat and place on baking sheet. After all meatballs have been scooped onto tray, roll into balls. TIP: If you lightly wet your hands the meatballs will form better and crack less. Bake for 20-25 minutes (for 2 trays).

While meatballs are baking, prepare wing sauce. In a medium saucepan over medium heat combine all ingredients. Stir to combine cook until ingredient come together. About 5 minutes.

Remove meatballs from oven and transfer to sauce and serve.
