Buffalo Meatballs



Buffalo Meatballs Stuffed with Blue Cheese. These look and taste delicious. This is a perfect appetizer for parties. If you like buffalo wings, this is eating the healthy version without frying. When I came across this on the internet I could not resist but to try these. My husband loves hot wings and always has them while he watches his football games, and now I serve him this recipe. Great dish to take to parties because you can keep and carry them in your crock pot. Enjoy!!



INGREDIENTS

  • 1 lb ground chickens
  • 1/4 small red onion, minced
  • 2 garlic cloves, miced
  • 1 egg white
  • 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1 tablespoons powdered ranch dip mix
  • 4 ounce's crumbled blue cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup buffalo wing sauce ( your favorite hot sauce)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. With a fork, stir together chickens, onion, garlic, egg white, bread crumbs, and ranch dip mix in a large bowl. Mix until just combined. This recipe will make 16 meatballs. Divide mixture into quarters, then make each quarter into 4 balls. 
  2. Place crumbled blue cheese into the center of each ball then form the mixture around cheese to seal. Roll into a ball.
  3. Place meatballs on a non-stick sprayed cooling rack set on top of a baking sheet and then bake for 16-18 minutes or until cooked through.
  4. Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Then add buffalo wing sauce and stir to combine. Add cooked meatballs to skillet using a spoon to coat them with sauce. Place a lid on the skillet and turn heat to low to keep the meatballs warm.
  5. Alternatively. you can finish the meatballs in a slow cooker like I did. Simply put the butter, buffalo wing sauce, and meatballs into a slow cooker and set on high for about 20 minutes or until warm.
