Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed

  • 1 (16 ounce) package ground chicken breast

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs

  • 1 teaspoon paprika

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • cooking spray

Directions

  1. Mix butter, parsley, and garlic together in a bowl until well combined. Divide mixture into 12 equal parts on a baking sheet. Freeze until solid, about 20 minutes.

  2. Shape ground chicken into 12 balls. Make a deep thumbprint in the center of each ball. Place a piece of frozen herbed butter in center, wrapping meat around it until fully covered. Repeat with remaining balls.

  3. Beat eggs in a bowl. Combine panko, paprika, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl.

  4. Dip 1 ground chicken ball in beaten eggs, then in seasoned bread crumbs. Dip ball back into egg and in seasoned bread crumbs once more. Repeat with remaining balls. Place on a baking sheet and freeze for 10 minutes.

  5. Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place half of the balls in the air fryer basket and spray with cooking spray.

  6. Cook for 5 minutes. Flip balls over with tongs and spray again with cooking spray. Cook for 5 minutes more. Repeat with remaining chicken balls.
