I honestly do not believe it will take very long before these are the #1 recipe on my website. These Buffalo Chicken Meatballs are absolutely incredible. When I recipe developed these, I actually had to stop myself and think, “Did I really make these?” And yes, obviously I did, but they are so good, I had a hard time believing it myself.
I think what I like most about these Buffalo Chicken Meatballs is that they are pretty versatile. Whip them up, stick a toothpick in them, and call it an appetizer. Whip them up, serve them over some cauliflower rice or with some veggies, and call it dinner. I promise, once you start eating them, you probably will not stop!
Because I love you so much and because I know you will love this recipe, I have tested it in the air fryer, the oven, and on the stove in a frying pan – you are welcome! The recipe card below has the air fryer instructions because honestly, they tasted the best but in the notes section at the bottom, you can find instructions for the oven and stovetop.
The prep time is quick, the recipe is simple, and the flavor is out of this world! Check out the recipe below and please let me know how you enjoyed it!
