Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the orzo according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
3. Add the garlic, yogurt, mayo, parsley, tarragon, chives, lemon zest, lemon juice, and fish salt to a blender. Season with salt and pepper. Blend until well combined and smooth.

7. Use a cookie scoop (about 1 – 1 ½ Tbsp size) to scoop the mixture into balls and place on the prepared baking sheet. You should have enough for approximately 20 meatballs.
8. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until starting to turn golden brown and an internal temperature of 165 degrees F is reached.
9. When ready to serve, spoon orzo into bowls and place a few meatballs on top. Drizzle with the reserved sauce and garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
