I’m always looking for new ways to recreate our favorite dishes. Making meatballs allows you to really enhance the flavor of chicken. If you love a saucy meatball, this recipe is for you! I took inspiration from the popular “marry me” chicken and created meatballs with a similar flavor and sauce. They turned out so delicious. They’re drenched in a creamy sun-dried tomato sauce with plenty of parmesan cheese and yummy Italian seasonings.
Here are the details
Step 1: make the meatballs I love to use ground chicken or pork for this recipe, but I’m sure that beef would be great too. Now the seasonings: basil pesto and Italian seasoning. Then mix in some parmesan cheese as well. Mix everything together and roll it into meatballs.
Step 2: cook the prosciutto + meatballs Next, crisp the prosciutto in a large skillet. When the prosciutto is crispy, add the meatballs and start cooking them. Once the meatballs are seared all over, this is when you can add the wine and the cream.
Step 3: finish and serve Let the meatballs simmer in the sauce, then finish with Parmesan and those yummy sun-dried tomatoes. Serve these meatballs topped with freshly grated parmesan cheese and basil. This dish is fresh, vibrant, and full of Italian flavors, yet still cozy. It’s perfect for these early spring days when we’re craving a pop of fresh color! My only recommendation is to serve this dish with some kind of crusty bread. It could be garlic, homemade, or something from the store. Either way, add some bread. It’s ideal for scooping up the meatballs and all the sauce in this dish. Yummy!
