    Make every day a keto food holiday with recipes that taste great, look amazing, and take just a few minutes out of your busy schedule.

    We made our own ground chicken meat but feel free to get store-bought ground chicken as long as it’s not enriched with starch, potatoes, or any carbs.

    Ingredients You'll Need

    Chicken Meatballs with Zoodles

    What you'll need for the Chicken Meatballs:

    • 1 large Chicken Breast (skinless and boneless)
    • 1 Egg
    • 1 tablespoon Flaxseed
    • 4 tablespoon Almond Flour
    • 4 tablespoon Parmesan Cheese grated
    • 1 teaspoon Salt
    • ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper
    • ½ cup extra virgin Olive Oil

    What you'll need for the Zoodles (Zucchini Noodles):

    • 1 large Zucchini
    • 1 tablespoon Parmesan
    • 1 tablespoon extra virgin Olive Oil
    • ¼ teaspoon Salt

    Now, let's get started!

    How to Make Chicken Meatballs

    First, process the chicken breast in a blender or food processor to get a ground meat consistency.

    Next, add the egg, almond flour, parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to the ground chicken and knead until you get a dough.

    Now you'll want to shape the mixture into bite-sized meatballs.

    Once they're ready, heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan and sauté the meatballs, tossing to cook evenly.

    Once the meatballs are done, cut the edges off the zucchini and, using a vegetable peeler cut long, thin strips lengthwise.

    Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a wide pan and sauté the zoodles for a minute. Add the parmesan cheese and mix gently.
