Ingredients

Scale

1 pound ground chicken
10-ounce box frozen spinach, thawed, drained and chopped*
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup plain breadcrumbs
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl mix all the ingredients together until just combined. Form the mixture into golf ball sized balls (I made 18 meatballs) and place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray or lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes.

Notes

For the spinach: Be sure to thaw completely and then wrap it in a clean dish towel to wring out all the excess moisture before chopping.
