Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, Italian seasoned breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, a large egg, minced garlic, minced parsley, onion powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
- With moistened hands, scoop out portions of the mixture and shape into meatballs about 1.5 inches in diameter.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil. Add the meatballs in a single layer and cook for 6-8 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and keep warm.
- In the same skillet, add more olive oil and unsalted butter, letting the butter melt while scraping up browned bits. Sauté minced garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the chicken broth, white wine, lemon juice, and drained capers. Season with additional salt and pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer for 3-4 minutes.
- Return the cooked meatballs to the skillet and let them simmer in the sauce for 2-3 minutes to heat through.
- Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
