Directions Garlic-Butter Zoodles with Chicken Meatballs
Directions
-
Mix ground chicken, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, egg, 2 garlic cloves, parsley, and red pepper flakes together in a large bowl. Season with kosher salt and black pepper and form into tablespoon-sized meatballs.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook meatballs until golden brown on all sides and no longer pink in the centers, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate and wipe the skillet with a paper towel.
Melt butter in the same skillet, add remaining 3 garlic cloves and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add zucchini noodles to the skillet and toss into the garlic butter, squeeze in lemon juice. Add meatballs and heat just until warmed through. Garnish with remaining Parmesan cheese to serve.
