Healthy Chicken Meatballs Recipe made Ground Chicken,  Curry Powder and Brown Sugar

A delicious mix of curry powder and brown sugar makes this healthy chicken meatballs recipe one of our favorite meatball recipes using ground chicken.

Serve these meatballs plain or with a side of rice sprinkled with a little soy sauce.  Top a healthy salad with chicken meatballs for something a bit different.

We love cooking and baking with healthy tumeric. This healthy spice helps to fight inflammation and aids in digestion.

Chicken Meatball Tips:

  • Don’t overwork the meat by mixing too long. Less is better when mixing any meat for meatballs.
  • If the meat gets too warm just stick it in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes.
  • If you want the meatballs browned a little on top, stick under the broiler for about 2-3 minutes.
  • Don’t be tempted to over bake your meatballs as this will dry them out.
  • If your hands get sticky, simply rinse with cold water.
