Perfectly moist and juicy, these Chicken Meatballs with Honey Mustard Sauce are quick to make and super satisfying. I like to flavor them with thyme, rosemary, garlic and onion. Grating the onion before adding it to the meatball mixture is a smart trick for moist and juicy meatballs. So use a box grater with small holes to grate the onion, or use the shredding blade of a food processor to make the job even easier.
This recipe calls for cooking the meatballs in the oven at a high temperature. However, you can also use an air fryer. Put the meatballs in the air fryer basket and cook at 400 °F for 10 to 12 minutes until the internal temperature reads 165 °F. Serve the meatballs with creamy mashed potatoes or a simply cooked green vegetable for a satisfying meal. Enjoy!
To make the Chicken Meatballs with Honey Mustard Sauce, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 425 °F.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 12 ounces ground chicken, ½ cup grated onion, ¾ cup panko breadcrumbs, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, ½ teaspoon dried rosemary, and ¾ teaspoon salt.
Mix gently but thoroughly. Using slightly damp hands, roll the meatball mixture into 10 meatballs.
Drizzle the meatballs with 1 tablespoon olive oil and roll them to coat, then place on a baking sheet.
Bake the meatballs for 12-15 minutes.
To a 12-inch frying pan or skillet over medium heat, add ¾ cup chicken stock and bring to a simmer.
Add in 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon English mustard, and ½ cup crème fraîche and stir to combine, reducing the heat to low. Bring to a gentle simmer.
Add in the meatballs and roll to coat. Cover with a lid and cook for 5 to 7 minutes or until the internal temperature reads 165 °F on an instant-read thermometer.
Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley and serve with your side of choice.
