Campfire Chicken Meatballs

Campfire chicken meatballs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish perfect for outdoor gatherings or cozy indoor evenings by the fire. Here’s a simple recipe to try:

Ingredients:

• 1 lb ground chicken
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• Olive oil, for cooking

Instructions:

• Prepare the Meatball Mixture:
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
• Form Meatballs:
  • Take small portions of the mixture and roll them into meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter. Place them on a plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Cooking Over Campfire:
  • Prepare your campfire, ensuring you have hot coals suitable for cooking.
  • Thread the meatballs onto skewers, leaving a little space between each meatball.
  • Drizzle some olive oil over the meatballs to prevent sticking.
  • Place the skewers over the hot coals, ensuring they are not directly over flames to avoid burning. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meatballs are cooked through and browned on the outside.
• Serve:
  • Once cooked, remove the meatballs from the skewers and serve hot. They can be enjoyed on their own as a snack or appetizer, or you can serve them with your favorite dipping sauce or alongside a salad or pasta.

Feel free to adjust the seasonings and spices according to your taste preferences. These campfire chicken meatballs are versatile and can be customized with your favorite herbs and spices. Enjoy your outdoor cooking experience!
