Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, gently combine the ground chicken, feta cheese, egg, panko bread crumbs, minced carrot, minced celery, garlic, and ranch dressing mix. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix. (5 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

Using a small spoon or your hands, form the mixture into 1/2-inch meatballs. Place the meatballs evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet. (10 minutes)

04

Step
24 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then turn the meatballs to ensure even browning. Continue baking until the meatballs are cooked through and no longer pink inside, approximately 14 minutes more. (24 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Transfer the cooked meatballs to a large bowl. Pour the Buffalo wing sauce over the meatballs and gently toss to coat them evenly. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Serve immediately and watch them disappear!

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the meatball mixture.
If you prefer a spicier kick, use a hotter variety of Buffalo wing sauce or add a dash of cayenne pepper to the meatballs.
These meatballs can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking. Just add a few extra minutes to the baking time.
Serve with a side of blue cheese or ranch dressing for dipping.
Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken meatballs reaches 165°F (74°C) before serving for food safety.

    I was skeptical about the ranch dressing mix, but it really added a nice flavor to the meatballs. I'll definitely make these again!
