These were so easy and delicious.  They would have to be cheaper than bought meatballs, let alone healthier as they're baked in the oven.  The mixture would probably make great hamburger patties.  And I reckon the recipe could easily be adapted for beef mince, maybe with semi-dried tomatoes, capsicum, mushrooms - whatever takes your fancy.  YUM

Like Cathy, these were excellent and made exactly as per recipe.  Made approx 6 dozen of the little morsels - I tried them when they were hot and then again when they were cold and nice either way, dipped into a Thai dipping sauce. 14 month old GS loved them too and kept putting his hand out for more.

I was also thinking they would be nice really small on a pizza - a great way to make the chicken go further.

Serve these with semi dried tomatoes and olives.  A fabulous flavour combination on a toothpick.  Or with sweet chilli marinated yoghurt cheese balls.   YUM!

Made these for a post-Christmas get-together and there were thumbs up all round. Even made these with the same weight of white fish fillets and they were really good. A great way to use up that fish that was languishing in the freezer and is almost tasteless every other way I cook it

You can't believe how relieved I am. Just mixed this up for dinner tonight and they're sitting in the fridge ready to put in the oven a little later. As I was rolling them I thought I really should have checked any reviews  .
Thank you!!

Thanks for the recipe. These are REALLY great - kids love them in their school lunchboxes. Added benefit is very little fat. Also made them using garlic, fresh ginger and Thai 7-spice for flavour - deeelicious.

Do you think this recipe could be frozen raw? As in make up the little balls and freeze or cook them first?

As long as the chicken hadn't been frozen before I'm sure you could Meagan.

Cathy - great idea! I had some of these in the freezer and mixed up some pizza dough - delish! Thanks for the suggestion, would never have thought to add them to the pizza.

Glad it worked well.  Haven't made pizza for a while.  Will have to try.

I made these last night and stuffed them up !! Obviously there are different types of fetta and son purchased hard fetta (I normally buy a soft one) so adding it in at the end did not work at all.
I kept mixing and mixing and the poor chicken was well and truly ground ! Ooooops!
Next time I will make sure the fetta gets chopped first if it is hard.

Hope they still tasted nice.

sort of 

daughter didn't like them - they were a bit rubber ball like

I might try these tomorrow - I'm looking for lunch box alternatives and this might be a good one.
