chicken snackers
These little chicken morsels served with a chili yoghurt sauce are amazing, can be prepared ahead of time, added to salads to give the salad some substance, or even added to a pasta sauce to make spaghetti chicken meatballs (done it many times and it’s fantastic). You can pop a few in the kids lunch boxes and they will have a whole lot of new friends I tell you. (makes enough for 4 people)
What you need
500g chicken mince
Pinch of salt and pepper
1 teaspoon crushed garlic
1 teaspoon finely chopped red chili (optional)
2 tablespoons breadcrumbs
4 tablespoons water
200g natural unflavoured yoghurt
1 tablespoon sweet chili sauce
The process
Mix all of the patty ingredients together ensuring that the ingredients are well combined.
This part is important.. Make small patties about 2 to 3 cm diameter and place on a plate and refrigerate for about 1/2 hour to an hour. This will ensure that they hold their shape and do not break during cooking.
Heat the grill pan to hot and cook the patties for about 2 minutes on each side. Serve and drizzle over the yoghurt and sweet chili sauce as a dressing.
These are really versatile little fellas that are great to have in th fridge all the time.

Hi there,
Just want to check something (I’m a bit of a cook’s arse)…
Your meatball recipe calls for 500g mince, and 2 cups breadcrumbs. However, your chicken meatball recipe calls for 500g chicken mince, and only 2 TBSP breadcrumbs…
Love this website – everything looks so easy, so I’m going to attempt a couple of them
Thank you!
Hi Colleen, yip thats right, just my preference. The meat can take the crumbs with the more powerful taste and tend to be a bit hard with too little whereas the chicken ones are smaller and have a more subtle flavour. Have a lekker day, G
