Recipe Steps

35 min

  • Step 1

    *Melt 1 TB of butter. Then, combine it in a bowl with the 1 cup of Frank’s Hot Sauce. Set this bowl aside for later use.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    In a food processor, combine the raw chicken breast with all the remaining ingredients except for the olive oil. You may want to pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and then roughly chopping it into pieces before adding it to the food processor.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Form approximately 8 meatballs that are about 2-inches wide each.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Heat the olive oil in a skillet not much larger than the space your meatballs will take up to a medium-high heat. Place the chicken meatballs evenly in the oil. Slowly rotate the meatballs with a pair of cooking tongs until all the sides are golden brown, and the chicken is cooked through (165 degrees internal temp.). This can take 5-10 minutes, depending on your heat level.
    Step 4
  • Step 5

    Turn the heat down to a medium-low, and pour the butter-hot-sauce mixture from earlier over the meatballs. Cook until the sauce comes to a gentle simmer, and all ingredients are heated through.
    Step 5
  • Step 6

    Enjoy as is with toothpicks for a snack or appetizer, or add the buffalo chicken meatballs to other favorite Carb Manager meals!

      I used prepackaged ground chicken which made it so much easier and quicker to make. Great and easy meal

          I put a small amount of cheese in the middle and it was very delicious. Will totally make this again

            These were delicious! I made them for dinner one night and served them over a bed of celery with blue cheese crumbles and a side salad!
