  • Preheat your oven to 400°F. Grease a baking sheet and set it aside.
  • In a food processor, toss in all the ingredients except for the chicken. Give it a good pulse until everything is chopped. Then, add the chicken breasts and pulse again until it’s all nicely mixed.
  • Use a large cookie scoop to form the mixture into circular meatballs by rolling it between your palms.
  • Place the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes or until they’re cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Take them out of the oven and serve with tzatziki, hummus, and rice if you like.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
