Categories: Chicken, Poultry, Turkey

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground chicken breast (think ground turkey would work)
• 2 cup grated zucchini (think yellow squash would work if you don't have zucchini)
• 2-3 green onions, sliced
• 3-4 tablespoons cilantro, minced (maybe use parsley
• 1 clove garlic
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 3/4 teaspoon cumin, optional
• olive oil, for cooking

Directions

1. Toss chicken with squash, 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 or form into patties. Cook 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 if using as an appetizer.
