Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground chicken breast
  • 2c grated zucchini
  • 2-3 green onions, sliced
  • 3-4 Tbsp cilantro, minced
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • (optional: 3/4 tsp cumin)
  • olive oil, for cooking

Directions

  1. Toss chicken with zucchini, green onion, cilantro, garlic, salt, and pepper (and cumin, if using). Mixture will be quite wet.

  2. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a medium pan over medium heat. Use a small scoop or a heaped tablespoon to scoop meatballs into the pan. Cook 8-10 at a time for about 5-6 minutes on the first side. Flip and cook an additional 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown and the centers are cooked through.

  3. Serve with guacamole, salsa, or your favorite dip.
