A killer recipe for chicken meatballs with the classic Greek flavors and the cool tzatziki sauce.
This is the most amazingly quick, flavorful and impressive little meatball. Outstanding on it’s own and completely 5 star with the dipping sauce.

This recipe makes about 32 meatballs which is enough for 4 people.
