Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts (about 1lb/400g)
- 2 cups roughly chopped zucchini
- 1 egg
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon celery seeds
- ½ tablespoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F
- Add all the ingredients to a food processor and blits until fine and well combined.
- Roll into bite-sized meatballs (don't worry if they seem a bit too sticky or loose - they'll stay together perfectly once you sear them).
- Heat up a pan and sear the meatballs in a bit of oil for a minute or two on each side until they get a light golden color. You might need to do 2 batches.
- Transfer the meatballs to a lined baking tray and pop in the oven for approximately 10 minutes. Double check that the meatballs are cooked in the center.
- Serve immediately!

Tips and Tricks:
1. You can forgo the searing of the meatballs, but adjust the cooking time to 20-25 minutes. 2. The Chicken Meatballs are cooked when they reach an internal temperature of 165F/73C.Nutrition
