Why You'll Want This Again

This dish combines bold flavors with a satisfying texture. The spicy buffalo chicken pairs perfectly with the creamy feta, while the cocktail meatballs add a hearty touch. It’s great for parties or a flavorful weeknight meal.

Best Cooking Tips

- Use fresh ground chicken for the best texture and taste.
- Don’t overmix the meatballs to keep them tender and juicy.
- If you like extra heat, add a dash of cayenne pepper or hot sauce.

Directions

Gently heat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray. In a big bowl, mix together the chicken, feta, egg, bread crumbs, grated carrot, chopped celery, minced garlic, and ranch dressing mix until everything is well combined. Roll the mixture into small meatballs, about half an inch in size, and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet. Pop them in the oven and bake for 10 minutes, then give them a little turn so they cook evenly. Keep baking for another 14 minutes or until they’re cooked all the way through. When they’re done, transfer the meatballs to a large bowl, pour over the Buffalo wing sauce, and gently toss to coat them evenly.

Best Ways To Serve

Serve with celery sticks and carrot sticks for a crunchy contrast. A side of ranch or blue cheese dressing works well for dipping. This dish also pairs nicely with a crisp green salad or garlic bread.

How To Store Leftovers

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven to avoid drying out the meatballs. You can also freeze cooked meatballs for up to 2 months; thaw in the fridge before reheating.
