Instructions
Prepare the Meatballs: In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, eggs, panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Gently mix the ingredients together, being careful not to over-mix as this can make the meatballs tough. Using a 1 ½-inch scooper, form your meatballs and place them on a tray.
Sear the Meatballs: Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs to the pan, allowing them to sear for 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally until they are golden brown on all sides.
Cook the Aromatics: Push the meatballs to the side of the pan to create a space in the center. Add the diced onions, garlic, and sundried tomatoes to the middle of the pan, stirring occasionally until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Make the Sauce: Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Add the Italian seasoning and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let the sauce simmer for 15-20 minutes, allowing the meatballs to cook through and the sauce to slightly thicken.
Garnish & Serve: Once the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce has thickened, remove from heat. Garnish with fresh sliced basil and, if you like, sprinkle with extra parmesan cheese for a finishing touch of indulgence.
