Description

These flavorful chicken meatballs are cooked on a Blackstone griddle, giving them a crispy crust while staying juicy inside. Topped with marinara and melted cheese, they make a great appetizer or main dish!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (plus more for garnish)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
  • 1 cup marinara sauce

 

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the Blackstone Griddle – Heat the Blackstone to medium heat and lightly oil the surface.
  • Make the Meatballs – In a bowl, combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, egg, garlic, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and parsley. Mix well and form into 1½-inch meatballs.
  • Cook the Meatballs – Place the meatballs on the hot griddle. Cook for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temp 165°F).
  • Add Marinara & Cheese – Pour marinara sauce over the meatballs, then sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top. Cover with a melting dome (or a foil tent) and cook for 2–3 minutes until the cheese melts.

 

  • Serve & Enjoy – Garnish with extra Parmesan and fresh parsley. Serve over pasta, zoodles, or on toasted buns for a meatball sub!

Notes

  • Use ground turkey instead of chicken for a variation.
  • If you don’t have a melting dome, use a deep pan lid to help the cheese melt.

 

  • Serve with garlic bread or a side salad for a complete meal.
