Sticky BBQ Meatballs

Ingredients

    • 1 pound ground chicken
    • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
    • 2 garlic cloves, minced
    • 2 green onions, thinly sliced, plus more for serving
    • ⅓ cup seasoned bread crumbs
    • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
    • kosher salt and pepper
    • 1 tablespoon Fustini's Garlic olive oil
    • 1 cup BBQ sauce
    • ¼ cup honey
    • ¼ cup water
    • rice, for serving

    Directions

    1. In a bowl, combine the chicken with the egg, garlic, onions, breadcrumbs, smoked paprika and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until just combined and form the mixture into the meatball size of your preference.
    2. Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs in a single layer and brown on all sides. Once browned, transfer the meatballs to a plate. In the same skillet, add the BBQ sauce, honey and water. Whisk it together. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for 1 minute. Add the meatballs back in and cook for a few minutes as the sauce thickens. You want the internal temperature of the meatballs to reach 165 degrees F before serving. Sprinkle with more green onions. Serve with broccoli slaw and rice!
    3. Place the broccoli slaw in a bowl. In a smaller measuring cup or bowl, whisk together the yogurt, mayo, honey and apple cider vinegar with a big pinch of salt and pepper. Pour over the broccoli slaw and serve.
