Ingredients
  

  • 1 Pound Ground Chicken You could also opt for Turkey
  • 1 Egg
  • ½ teaspoon Pepper
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Minced Garlic
  • 1 Cup Parmesan Cheese Grated
  • 4 Zucchini Spiralized
  • 4 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 2 tablespoon Butter

Instructions
 

  • Combine the ground chicken, egg, pepper, salt, minced garlic and Parmesan cheese.
  • Heat the olive oil to a large pan. Form small 2-3" meatballs from the chicken mixture and place in heated pan.
  • Cook about 5 minutes on each side - about 15-20 minutes total or until cooked through.
  • Once the meatballs are cooked through, remove from the pan.
  • Add the 2 tablespoons of butter to the pan and add in the zoodles.
  • Cook 5-10 minutes.
  • Remove and serve with the chicken meatballs.

Notes

To keep the chicken meatballs moist, incorporate shredded zucchini into the mixture, adding flavor and reducing the need for breadcrumbs.
For a zesty kick, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the meatball mixture or sprinkle over the zoodles before serving. ​
Enhance the garlic flavor by sautéing additional minced garlic in butter before tossing with the zoodles, creating a rich, garlicky base.
