Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Lean ground chicken
  • 3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg white
  • 1/2 cup Franks red hot or Louisiana style hot sauce If you like it spicier you can add more
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper

Blue cheese dip

  • 1 cup blue cheese crumbles
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp. buttermilk, heavy cream, or milk (milk may be a bit runny but it is doable)
  • 1 tbsp. lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with non stick cooking spray.
  • Melt the butter in a medium sized bowl in the microwave. (Or stovetop in a small saucepan)
    After melted add the hot sauce and the garlic powder Mix well.
  • Now into a large bowl add the chicken, panko, salt, pepper, egg white, and half of the butter/hot sauce combo.
  • Mix and roll into 25 meatballs. Place on baking sheet.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes.
  • If you did not already make the blue cheese dip now is a good time or you can skip and use store bought blue cheese dressing or ranch. I DO however really recommend the homemade. SO YUMMY!
  • After the meatballs are finishes, reheat the hot sauce/butter combo and toss the meatballs in the sauce. Serve immediately with the dip.
  • You can garnish with carrot and celery sticks if you would like. It is really great with the dip too.

Blue Cheese Dip

  • Combine all the ingredients. Mix, cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
