INGREDIENTS

8 oz ground chicken

1 large egg

2 tbsp almond flour

1 tbsp fresh parsley

1 tsp dried oregano

1 clove garlic

0.5 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp lemon zest

1 tsp olive oil

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

  In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground chicken, egg, almond flour, finely chopped parsley, dried oregano, minced garlic, sea salt, black pepper, and fresh lemon zest.

• 3

  Using your hands or a wooden spoon, gently mix the ingredients together until just incorporated, taking care not to overwork the meat to ensure a light texture.

• 4

  Lightly coat your palms with olive oil to prevent sticking, then roll the mixture into approximately 12 even-sized meatballs.

• 5

  Arrange the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not touching so the heat can circulate evenly.

• 6

  Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the meatballs are golden on the outside and reach an internal temperature of 165°F.

• 7

  Remove from the oven and let rest for 2 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
