Rosemary Chicken Meatballs

These rosemary chicken meatballs are lower in fat and cholesterol than typical meatballs yet they still have a delicious flavor. Homemade meatballs can be made in advance and kept in the refrigerator for a few days, or frozen for a few months if kept in an air-tight seal or vaccum bag.

Ingredients:

  • 6 cloves garlic
  • 1 small onion or 2 shallots
  • 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
  • 2 lbs ground chicken
  • 1/4 cups chopped fresh Italian parsley
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
  • 1 cup mashed potatoes
  • freshly ground pepper to taste
  • Mince the garlic cloves and onions or shallots. Finely chop the rosemary leaves.

    Combine all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Form 2 inch meatballs and place on a baking sheet, lightly coated with cooking spray and cover the meatballs with foil. Bake covered with foil for 30 minutes covered in the oven set at 375°F. Then uncover and bake another 5-10 minutes until browned. Place the baked meatballs on a paper towel to soak up the extra fat.
