The recipe is the closest to Chicken Parmesan as you can get without frying. Yes chicken Parmesan meatballs or you can make a casserole using a 13x9 in baking dish.
Quite honestly that thought just crossed my mind while I was typing. A timesaver and great option.
Simple to do and a possible suggestion for those who want to save time. Begin by Spraying a 13x9 in baking dish with cooking spray.
Layer half of the seasoned chicken mixture on the bottom pressing down firmly. Next using fresh mozzarella layer a few slices covering all of chicken mixture. Top mozzarella with remainder of chicken mixture using a large greased with cooking spray spoon. Cover with aluminum foil and bake st 350 degrees for approximately one hour. (about 1 lb. of ground chicken) Remove from oven and top with marinara sauce and more mozzarella. Bake uncovered or carefully broil until slightly browned. Cheese should melt and sauce should bubble.
Enjoy!
Now on to the chicken meatballs!
This is a small recipe so double it if you are using more ground chicken.
1 lb. ground chicken
1 tsp. Salt
Pinch or two pepper
1/2 cup garlic and herb breadcrumbs
1/2 cup Parmesan or Romano cheese
1 egg slightly beaten
1/4 to 1/3 chicken broth ( just enough to keep moist)
1/3 lb mozzarella cut in pieces( I used mozzarella sticks for convenience)
Sliced mozzarella for top(I shredded mine for my recipe)
Mix all those ingredients together adding broth a little at a time.
Set oven to 350 degrees.
Spray a medium size cookie sheet with cooking spray or olive oil.
Place filled meatball ( check photo)on cookie sheet. Bake 15 minutes or less depending on size of meatballs.
Remove from oven and place in crockpot on low the chicken meatballs and your favorite sauce.
Cook on low approximately 3 hours or if cooking them on stove you should use a medium size Dutch oven cooking slowly about 1 hour.
Jarred or homemade Marinara works beautifully.
Happy cooking!
