Slow Cooker Chicken Meatballs Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare the sauce by whisking tomatoes, basil, parsley, oregano, salt, red pepper flakes, and black pepper in a slow cooker. Adjust heat to High.
• Combine ground chicken, egg, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, onion, olive oil, parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Use your hands to gently mix together. Roll into 1 1/2-inch balls and place into the sauce. Use a spoon to cover the meatballs with sauce; do not stir.
• Place the lid on the slow cooker and drape a thick kitchen towel over it. Cook on High for 2 1/2 hours until meatballs are cooked through.

Steps:

• In large bowl, mix chicken, bread crumbs, celery, 1/4 cup of the sauce, the onion, eggs, garlic, salt and pepper; gently mix to combine. Using wet hands, shape mixture into 1 1/2-inch meatballs (about 36 total).
• In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add half of the meatballs; cook about 5 minutes or until golden brown on all sides. Repeat with remaining oil and meatballs. Transfer browned meatballs to 4-quart slow cooker. Pour 1/4 cup of the sauce over meatballs. Cover; cook on Low heat setting about 3 hours or until thermometer inserted in center of meatballs reads at least 165°F.
• In small bowl, beat melted butter and remaining 1/4 cup sauce with whisk. Drizzle over meatballs; gently toss to coat.
• Serve with blue cheese dressing as a dip.

Steps:

• Place carrots in the bottom of a slow cooker, then place meatballs on top.
• Combine diced tomatoes with juice, tomato paste, chicken broth, red wine, onion, garlic, olive oil, sugar, oregano, basil, garlic powder, seasoned salt, cayenne pepper, and black pepper in a bowl; pour over meatballs and carrots in the slow cooker.
• Cover and cook on Low for 4 to 6 hours. Add thawed Italian vegetables, cover, and cook on High until vegetables are done, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
• Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and golden brown, about 7 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until aromatic, about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and let the onion mixture cool to room temperature.
• In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg, panko, Parmesan, parsley, salt, pepper, and the onion mixture and use your hands to mix until just combined.
• Roll the chicken mixture into 1½-inch balls and place on the prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
• Bake the meatballs until browned and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Serve with pasta and sauce of your choice.
• Enjoy!
