Creamy and Dreamy

Chicken Meatballs with Feta Dill Sauce is all about texture. There’s something comforting about tender savory meatballs paired with the rich, creamy sauce creating a comforting symphony of flavors.

I love using ground chicken for this recipe. It’s packed with protein, low in fat, and a perfect canvas for all of the fresh and savory flavors. Feta adds that salty pop. Fresh dill gives them a fresh and herbaceous bite.

Unlike many recipes that require frying the meatballs, these are simply scooped, rolled and baked in the oven. This makes them ideal for a quick, mess free weeknight meal.
