Creamy Chicken Parmesan Meatballs

by

These Creamy Chicken Alfredo Meatballs offer the perfect balance of flavors: tender chicken meatballs soaked in a rich, creamy Alfredo sauce, topped with melted Parmesan and fresh parsley. The luscious sauce coats each bite, creating an indulgent and satisfying dish that’s impossible to resist.

  1. Ingredients:
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (for frying)

For the Alfredo Sauce:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  2. Form the mixture into meatballs, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the meatballs and cook for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides and cooked through. Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside.
  4. For the Alfredo sauce, in the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the heavy cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat and let it cook for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  5. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  6. Return the meatballs to the skillet with the Alfredo sauce, making sure they are well coated. Let them simmer in the sauce for another 5-7 minutes, allowing the meatballs to absorb some of the sauce.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
