Recipe: Alton Brown's Chicken Parmesan Balls

4.5 stars

I was watching the Today Show last week.  Alton Brown was on showing how to make his Chicken Parmesan Balls -- I had to make them after watching the clip.

Great recipe that we'll definitely make again.  This could be served with pasta, but we decided on bread.

We didn't make the herb oil but I'm sure that adds a whole other dimension to the balls.  (I guess he doesn't call them meatballs since the recipe doesn't use red meat?)  Also, we made our own spaghetti sauce recipe.

The chicken parmesan balls themselves only had 11 ingredients:  panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, ground chicken, egg, oil, dried basil, garlic powder, dried parsley, dried oregano, Kosher salt and mozzarella cheese.

For an alternative to 'red' meatballs, this was great!
