Buffalo Chicken Balls
Equipment
- 1 oven
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 16 oz shredded cheddar cheese
- 2/3 cup buffalo sauce
- 3 cups Bisquick
Instructions
- Set the oven at 350.
- All components should be mixed in a stand mixer after being added. A hand mixer is an additional option. Without either, you can combine the ingredients using a wooden spoon before combining them with your hands.
- Place on a prepared baking sheet after forming into tiny balls that are about 1 1/2 in across. These Silicone Baking Mats are what I use; No need to clean a pan with them—a game changer! When making the balls, it can become a little messy, so feel free to flour your hands or use a cookie scoop.
- Till golden brown, bake for 25–30 minutes.
