Ingredients
1/4 cup chili sauce
3 tbs apricot preserves
1 tbs chili garlic-flavored hot sauce
1 large egg
1 lb 93% lean ground chicken
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup finely ground almond flour
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400°; spray rimmed baking pan with cooking spray. In medium bowl, whisk chili sauce, preserves, hot sauce and ½ cup water.

 

2. In large bowl, lightly beat egg; gently mix in chicken, onions, flour and garlic powder until just combined. Makes about 3 cups.

 

3. Form chicken mixture into 1½-inch meatballs; place 1 inch apart on prepared pan. Bake 20 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165°; cool slightly. Place meatballs in large zip-top plastic bag; pour chili sauce mixture over meatballs. Seal bag, pressing out excess air; freeze up to 2 months.

 

4. Transfer meatballs to slow cooker; cover and cook on high 2 hours or low 4 hours. Makes about 20 meatballs and ¾ cup sauce.

 

Dietitian Tip: This recipe is a delicious appetizer, or try as a new twist on a meatball sub. Place meatballs in a whole wheat baguette, with toppings such as kimchi, cucumbers, shredded carrots or sliced radish for added crunch
