Chicken Sausage Meatballs


I made these tasty meatballs with the plan of using them with Alfredo Sauce over Fettuccine noodles later in the week.  This recipe made about 2 dozen 1 inch meatballs.  I believe they'd also be great on toasted bread with marinara and provolone.  

1 pound sweet Italian Chicken Sausage
1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
1/4 cup diced green bell pepper
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/3 cup Italian bread crumbs
1/2 t. minced garlic
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 t. dried basil
1/2 t. dried oregano

Place all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until well combined.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Lightly grease a large baking sheet.

Roll meatball mixture into 1 inch sized balls and place on baking sheet about an inch apart.

Baking for 15 - 18 minutes until cooked through and browned.

You can use these just as you would in a recipe for regular meatballs.

You can also let them cool and freeze until ready to use.
