in my meatball era…!? 😂 idk, but i’m not mad about it. these harissa chicken meatballs are SO flavorful, easy and a great protein source! also gluten & dairy free if that’s your thing :) RECIPE: for the harissa chicken meatballs (gluten free, dairy free): **makes about 18 meatballs** -1 lb ground chicken -1 egg -1/3 packed cup almond flour -1/3 cup finely diced onion (red or yellow will work) -1/4 cup chopped parsley -2 cloves garlic, minced -1 tbsp harissa (i used the trader joe’s one, if you’re using a milder brand like Mina then you may want to increase the amount) -1 tsp cumin -1/2 tsp ginger -1/2 tsp paprika -salt + pepper for the homemade hummus (gluten free, dairy free): -1 can (16oz) chickpeas, drained & rinsed -1/3 cup tahini -2 tbsp lemon juice -2 tbsp olive oil -1 clove garlic -handful of ice cubes (or some cold water) -1/2 tsp salt for the tomato cucumber salad (gluten free): -2 mini cucumbers, chopped -1 roma tomato, chopped -1/4 cup crumbled feta -1/2 tbsp red wine vinegar -salt add all meatball ingredients except for the ground chicken to a large bowl. stir until combined. then add ground chicken and mix until combined but try not to overmix! at this point you can refrigerate the mixture for 15 minutes to let it firm up or just move on. scoop out 2 tbsp and roll into balls. place onto parchment lined tray. air fry (or oven bake) at 400F for ~10 minutes. meanwhile, add garlic & chickpeas to a food processor & pulse until mostly chopped. then add tahini, lemon juice & salt. blend. slowly pour in the olive oil while the food processor is running. then, add in the ice cubes or cold water until it reaches your desired consistency. in a medium bowl, add all tomato cucumber salad ingredients and toss until combined. assemble your bowl with cooked meatballs, tomato cucumber salad, hummus and orzo if you’d like! enjoy :) #harissa #chickenmeatballs #meatballrecipes #easyandhealthy #healthydinnerideas #glutenfreedairyfree #airfryerrecipes #weeknightdinner #homemadehummus #harissachicken
