CHEESY CHICKEN PARMESAN MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, combine tofu, ricotta, Parmesan, bread crumbs, egg, garlic, oregano, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper, and mix until well combined. Add chicken and gently mix to incorporate. Lightly wet hands to prevent meatball mixture from sticking, then roll into 24 (1 1/2-inch) golf ball-size rounds.
• In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium. Add bell peppers, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add marinara sauce and meatballs, and stir gently to coat the meatballs in the sauce. Bring to a boil, cover and transfer to the oven to bake until meatballs are cooked through, 20 minutes.
• Top with provolone slices, slightly overlapping, and bake until cheese melts, about 3 minutes longer.
• Serve meatballs, peppers and sauce over egg noodles. Garnish with parsley, if using.

CRISPY CHICKEN PARM BALLS

Steps:

• Fill a large Dutch oven or pot halfway with oil. Attach a deep-fat fry thermometer on the side. Heat over medium to 350 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, mix together the chicken, Italian seasoning, egg, 1/4 cup panko, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
• Scoop out 2 heaping tablespoons of the chicken mixture and flatten into a 2-inch circle in your hand. Put a mozzarella cube in the center of the circle. Pat the meat mixture around the cheese to encase it in a ball. Set the ball aside on a plate or baking sheet and repeat with the remaining mozzarella and chicken mixture.
• Stir together the Parmesan, remaining 1 cup panko and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.
• Working one at a time, toss the chicken balls in the panko mixture until they are completely coated, pressings the panko into the ball with your hands to make sure it sticks.
• Fry the balls in batches until deep golden brown and the chicken is cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Serve with the marinara for dipping.

Use your hands to roll into 8 to 10 equal-sized meatballs; place in the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of each meatball should read at least 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).

CHEESY CHICKEN PARM VOLCANOS

Steps:

• For the breadcrumb coating:.
• Place the 2 cups of breadcrumbs in a large skillet. Drizzle on the olive oil and sprinkle with the dried parsley. Toast over a medium-high heat on the stove, stirring often, until the breadcrumbs are warmed through and golden. Remove from the heat and transfer to a wide, shallow dish.
• For the egg coating:.
• In a wide, shallow bowl, whisk the egg, water, cornstarch and flour until smooth.
• For the chicken parm:.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick liner.
• In a medium bowl mix the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, milk, onion, parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Mix very well until combined.
• Divide the chicken into 8 equal balls. Flatten each ball into a disk, place a cube of mozzarella cheese in the centre of each disk, then wrap the chicken around the cube of cheese. Use your hands to shape each meatball into a cone (like a volcano).
• Dip each meatball into the egg coating, gently turning it to coat well. Next, dip in the breadcrumbs making sure that every meatball is very well-coated.
• Set on a lined baking sheet and bake 18-22 minutes until chicken is cooked through. (If you opt for larger meatballs, as seen in the video, you'll need to bake them longer, 20-25 minutes or until cooked through.)
• Remove from the oven and drizzle pizza sauce on top of each meatball and sprinkle on the grated mozzarella.
• Set the oven to broil and return the meatballs to the oven to melt the cheese on top (3-5 minutes).
• Remove from the oven and garnish with parsley.
