Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, minced garlic, and chopped onion. Add crumbled feta cheese, fresh oregano, fresh dill, salt, and pepper. Mix until well incorporated but avoid overworking it.
  2. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Shape the mixture into 1.5-inch meatballs and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  3. Bake the meatballs for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  4. Prepare the tzatziki sauce by combining Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt in a small bowl. Mix well and set aside.
  5. Once the meatballs are done, let them rest for a few minutes. Serve warm with tzatziki sauce drizzled on top and sprinkle fresh parsley.
