Chicken Meatballs Meal Prep

Steps

1. 1Cauliflower Rice
2. 2Make cauliflower rice by grating the cauliflower heads or pulsing cauliflower florets in a food processor.
3. 3Cover a large plate with the cauliflower rice, add 1 cup of water, and cook on the highest setting in the microwave for about 5-7 minutes. It'll steam the cauliflower rice.
4. 4Alternatively, you can steam cauliflower florets and then pulse in a food processor to make the rice.
5. 5Chicken Meatballs
6. 6In a large bowl, combine ground chicken with cheddar cheese, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, paprika, onion powder, crushed red pepper flakes, salt and black pepper. Combine well with your hands.
7. 7Roll up 12 meatballs out of the mince and set aside.
8. 8Heat up a large skillet to medium-low heat. Add 2 tbsp of butter and cook the chicken meatballs for 8-10 minutes on all sides until they have browned and cooked through. While cooking, baste the meatballs with the butter juices so they thoroughly cook through.
9. 9Add the remaining 1 tbsp of butter to the skillet, squeeze in the lemon juice, and pour in the chicken stock and sriracha sauce. Cook for another 4-5 minutes, stirring regularly until some of the water evaporates.
