Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

In a large bowl, use your hands to combine the ground chicken, mozzarella, pork rinds, onion, egg, garlic, 1 tablespoon of the cilantro, salt, pepper, and paprika.
Scoop 1 tablespoon of the meatball mixture into your hands and roll it into a 1- 1/2-inch ball. Set aside on a plate and repeat with the remaining meatball mixture.
In a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil.
Working in batches to keep from overcrowding the skillet, place the meatballs in the pan, spacing them about 2 inches from one another. Fry until browned all over and cooked through, about 6 minutes total. Transfer the meatballs to a paper towel–lined plate.
When you’ve cooked all the meatballs, turn off the heat and drain the remaining oil from the skillet.
Return the meatballs to the pan and add the Noble Made Barbecue Sauce and toss to coat.
Serve with the remaining 1 tablespoon cilantro sprinkled on top.
