Chicken Pesto Meatballs

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Add the ground chicken, shallot, breadcrumbs, parmesan, 1/3 cup pesto, salt, and pepper to a mixing bowl. Mix until well combined.
3. Use a cookie scoop or your hands to form meatballs, about 1 ½ Tbsp in size. Place on the baking sheet. You should have about 14 meatballs.
4. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through and an internal temperature of 165 degrees F is reached.
5. While the meatballs bake, bring a pot of water to a boil, and cook the noodles according to package instructions. Remove the noodles to a bowl and toss to combine with the remaining pesto.
6. Spoon the noodles into bowl along with a few meatballs. Sprinkle grated parmesan over the top. Serve and enjoy!
7. Any leftovers should be cooled completely and stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
