I got the idea to make parmesean chicken meatball from Pinterest, but none of the recipes I found sounded like chicken parmesean to me, soooooo I adapted it. I took my regular chicken parm recipe and, well, I meatballed it :) All you need is some ground chicken, string cheese, whole wheat bread crumbs, spaghetti sauce, 1 egg, and a small amount of flour.
I started my sauce simmering right away so I could season it and let it cook. I think it tastes better the longer it cooks. I add garlic cloves, italian seasoning, and onion powder to my sauce. Next, I made a "work station" of sorts so I could easily make the meatballs. Put egg in one bowl, flour in one bowl, and split the string cheese into about thirds.
Take a meatball sized chuck of chicken and form it into a ball around a piece of cheese. Dip it in the flour first, then the egg, and finally the bread crumbs. I put the balls into muffin tins so they would keep their shape.
Bake the meatballs at 400 for about thirty minutes. Meanwhile, cook your spaghetti noodles. I LOVE Smart Taste noodles. They taste exactly like white noodles, but they are not enriched. The final product was amazing!!!! I admit this is not the easiest recipe as far as time goes, but I will make this again for sure!
