Bleu Balls Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine the chicken, ham, and egg in a large bowl until well blended. Gradually add bread crumbs until the mixture loses its stickiness and can be easily formed into balls.
• Form the chicken mixture around the cheese cubes, forming 2 inch balls. Place on a plate.
• Heat 1 1/2 inches of oil in a deep skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Fry the balls until the outsides are golden brown, about 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels, and place in baking dish.
• Bake in preheated oven until cooked through and cheese is soft, about 20 minutes. Cool briefly before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a jelly roll pan with aluminum foil.
• Mix ground beef, bread crumbs, eggs, blue cheese, onion, pepper, and salt together in a bowl; shape into 22 meatballs and arrange onto prepared pan.
• Bake meatballs until they are very firm, hot, and grey in the center, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the cream cheese, blue cheese, Cheddar cheese, onion and Worcestershire sauce. Transfer to a separate bowl that has been lined with plastic wrap. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• The next day, gather the cream cheese mixture into a ball. Spread the walnuts out on a dinner plate. Roll the cheese ball in nuts until coated. Refrigerate or serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine chicken, almond flour, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and egg in a bowl. Form a small portion of chicken mixture into a 1 1/2-inch ball around a cube of ham and place onto a plate. Repeat with remaining chicken mixture and ham, making 20 meatballs total.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown meatballs for 3 minutes, turn, and cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer meatballs onto a clean plate.
• Return skillet to medium heat and melt butter. Whisk in chicken broth and Dijon mustard and bring to a simmer for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in heavy cream and whisk until sauce begins to simmer. Whisk in Swiss cheese until completely melted. Return meatballs to skillet and simmer until sauce has slightly thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with cracked black pepper and parsley. Serve immediately. Sauce will further thicken upon cooling.

Steps:

• Cream softened cream cheese.
• Add cheddar and crumbled bleu.
• Mix well and shape into 1 large or 2 small balls.
• Roll in toasted sesame seeds.
• Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl thoroughly mix the cream cheese and butter together.
• Add olives, blue cheese, and chives. Mix well, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
• Form mixture into a ball and wrap in a sheet of plastic wrap.
• Refrigerate until completely chilled.
• Place on a serving plate
• Serve with dippers of your choice

Steps:

• Mash bleu cheese with a fork.
• Add butter, Tabasco and onion. Blend well. Form into walnut-sized balls.
• Roll balls in almonds. Cover and chill. Serve with crackers or toast and sliced cherry tomatoes.

Steps:

• For the meatballs: Place the chicken thighs, eggs, celery salt, and white pepper in a food processor. Pulse until the meat is ground but still a little bit chunky. Do not make a smooth paste!
• Transfer the chicken mixture to a bowl. Stir together the breadcrumbs and blue cheese until combined.
• Fill a small bowl with water. To form the meatballs, wet your hands a little and shape the mixture into 1-inch balls. Lay the meatballs on a sheet tray.
• Heat a large, deep pan over medium-high heat and add the oil to fill about 1/4-inch up the sides. Do not fill the pan completely with oil.
• Pour the flour into a shallow dish and season with salt and pepper. Roll each meatball in the flour to give it a light coating.
• When the oil is hot, add the meatballs and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Flip the meatballs halfway through cooking. You may have to cook them in batches if they don't fit in the pan, adding more oil if needed. Drain the cooked meatballs on a paper towel-lined plate.
• For the sauce: Combine the tomato juice, rice wine vinegar, hot sauce, celery salt, white pepper, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk in the oil until well blended and slightly thickened.
• For serving: Transfer half the meatballs to a large bowl. Pour some of the sauce over top, just enough to coat the meatballs. Gently toss the meatballs around to coat in the sauce. Using tongs, transfer the meatballs to serving plate and insert a toothpick. Repeat with remaining meatballs.
• Pour the remaining sauce into a small bowl and serve as a dipping sauce.

Steps:

• Place each chicken breast on a cutting board between 2 pieces of parchment paper. Being careful not to pound all the way through, use a mallet or a foil-wrapped brick to flatten each breast to a thickness of 1/4 inch.
• Cut ham and Swiss cheese slices in half so you have 4 pieces of each. Stack 1 piece ham and 1 piece of cheese in the middle of each flattened chicken breast. Roll up like a jelly roll, tucking the ham and cheese inside the breast as you roll. Secure the ends and sides with toothpicks so the cheese won't run out. Transfer to the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
• Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), if recommended by the manufacturer.
• Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Place beaten egg in second bowl. Place bread crumbs in a third bowl.
• Dip each chicken bundle in flour mixture, then in egg, and finally in bread crumbs to coat. If you notice any spots that are just coated in flour, lightly pat with beaten egg and bread crumbs. Gently pat each bundle with melted butter and place in the air fryer basket.
• Air-fry until crust is nicely browned and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
