Instructions

Creating your Mediterranean Chicken Meatballs Power Bowl is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, parsley, oregano, salt, pepper, and paprika.
3. Mix Thoroughly: Use your hands to mix until all ingredients are well combined. Be careful not to over-mix.
4. Form Meatballs: Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1-2 inches in diameter. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
5. Drizzle Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle olive oil over the meatballs for moisture and flavor.
6. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through and golden brown.
7. Prepare the Bowls: While the meatballs are baking, prepare your serving bowls. Start with a base of quinoa or brown rice, followed by a generous portion of cherry tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, and red onion.
8. Add Meatballs: Once cooked, add a few meatballs to each bowl over the fresh vegetables.
9. Garnish: Top each bowl with a dollop of hummus and tzatziki sauce. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for a fresh squeeze of citrus.
10. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Mediterranean Chicken Meatballs Power Bowl warm, encouraging all flavors to shine.
