My favorite Sundays are in the fall and winter, spent around the TV watching football and eating all day. A few weeks ago, my boyfriend Chris and I decided it was time to start decorating for Halloween and luckily enough, our only day free was a Sunday where the Steelers were airing out here in Los Angeles. We invited his sisters and parents over to have a little decorating party, watch the game and eat all day. I figured it was a perfect time to try out some of my new recipes I experiment with on people other than Chris and I. Here was my favorite recipe I came across… and… adjusted. =]

Spicy Chicken Meatballs

Spicy Chicken Meatballs

1 lb ground chicken
1 egg
½ cup Panko breadcrumbs
1 carrot
2 small green onions
½ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp salt
½ cup hot sauce, split in half
1 Tbsp butter

Preheat oven to 350° and spray cookie sheet with nonstick spray. Mince onions and carrots and combine with chicken, egg, breadcrumbs, garlic, salt and ¼ cup hot sauce. Fold together the ingredients to the center of the bowl. Fold until ingredients are evenly dispersed throughout meat. Form 1 inch meatballs and play onto cookie sheet. Bake for 20 minutes. In the last minute of baking combine ¼ cup hot sauce with butter into a microwave safe dish, and microwave for 30 seconds. Either serve sauce on the side as a dipping sauce or pour over the meatballs on a serving platter.
