Helpful Tips

  1. Mix Ingredients Gently: When combining the ingredients for the meatballs, be careful not to overmix. This will help keep the meatballs tender and juicy. Use your hands to mix until just combined for the best texture.
  2. Bake for Easy Cleanup: For a healthier and easier cooking method, bake the meatballs on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 400°F (200°C) for about 20 minutes, or until they are cooked through and golden brown. This method also reduces the mess compared to frying!
  3. Toss in Extra Sauce: Once the meatballs are cooked, toss them in additional buffalo sauce for an extra burst of flavor. This step adds a delicious glaze and ensures that every bite is packed with that signature buffalo taste.

Buffalo Chicken Meatballs are a flavorful and easy-to-make appetizer that adds a spicy kick to any gathering. With their tender texture and bold taste, they’re bound to be a favorite.
