Instructions
For the Meatballs:
Prepare the Meatball Mixture:
-
In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, egg, Parmesan, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and thyme.
-
Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the meatballs tender.
Shape the Meatballs:
-
Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form the mixture into evenly sized balls, about 1.5 inches in diameter.
Sear the Meatballs:
-
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
-
Add the meatballs and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 6-8 minutes. They don’t need to be fully cooked as they will finish cooking in the sauce.
-
Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside.
For the Creamy Mushroom Sauce:
Sauté the Mushrooms:
-
In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
-
Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until golden and tender, about 5-7 minutes.
-
Stir in minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Prepare the Sauce:
-
Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet for extra flavor.
-
Stir in heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
Simmer the Meatballs:
-
Return the seared meatballs to the skillet.
-
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the meatballs to cook through and absorb the flavors of the sauce.
Garnish and Serve:
-
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the dish before serving.
-
Pair with your favorite side dish and enjoy!
