For an extra layer of flavor, try marinating the ground chicken with the dry spices for about 30 minutes before mixing with the other ingredients. If you prefer a crispier meatball, you can lightly pan-fry them in a skillet with a touch of olive oil before baking. This will give them a golden-brown crust. Feel free to adjust the amount of Buffalo wing sauce to suit your spice preference. You can also experiment with different types of cheese, such as blue cheese or pepper jack, for a unique twist. These meatballs are delicious served as an appetizer, a snack, or even as a main course with a side of your favorite dipping sauce and a fresh salad.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly coat with cooking spray. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a medium bowl, gently combine the ground chicken, panko bread crumbs, beaten egg, 1 tablespoon of Buffalo wing sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined to avoid tough meatballs. (5 minutes)
03
StepLightly spray your hands with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Take a small portion of the chicken mixture and flatten it slightly in your palm. Place a feta cheese cube in the center and gently mold the chicken around the cheese to form a 1 ½-inch ball. Ensure the feta is completely sealed inside. Place the meatball onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chicken mixture and feta cubes. (20 minutes)
04
StepBake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and lightly browned. Turn the meatballs over halfway through the baking time to ensure even cooking. (20 minutes)
05
StepTransfer the cooked meatballs to a serving platter. Drizzle generously with the remaining 2 tablespoons of Buffalo sauce and 2 tablespoons of ranch dressing. Sprinkle with shredded carrot, minced celery, and the reserved crumbled feta cheese for added flavor and visual appeal. Serve immediately and enjoy the burst of flavors! (5 minutes)
