Notes
How to make Chicken Meatballs
Step 1: Firstly we need to make chicken keema. For that take boneless pieces of chicken and cut them into small pieces. After that put the chicken pieces in a food processor and make a keema paste.
Tips: I have used manual food processor here. By using this I made soft and smooth chicken keema which I needed for the dish. You can use electric food processor or a mixer grinder to make keema.
Step 2: Now take it out in a big bowl and smash it for 1 minute by a fork or spoon. It helps to understand the stickiness of the Keema.
Step 3: At this point add finely chopped garlic and coriander or parsley in the chicken and mix it well.
Step 4: Add one by one all the ingredients into chicken keema and mix them all together. Now put a lid on and keep it aside for 1 hour.
Tips: If you are keeping the mixture in a fridge, then take them out before 20 to 30 minutes of cooking.
Step 5: It’s time to put the oven at convection mode at 180°C and start to preheat it.
Step 6: Meanwhile take equal amount of mixture of chicken keema and make 2 inch size of ball shape.
Step 7: After that put them all on a baking tray and put the tray inside the oven. Bake them for 15 minutes.
Step 8: Chicken Meatballs are ready to be served. Mayonnaise can be the great combo for this dish. I hope you will like it and defiantly going to make it at you own kitchen.

Great post made here. One thing I would like to say is always that most professional fields consider the Bachelors Degree like thejust like the entry level standard for an online college diploma. Even though Associate Certification are a great way to begin, completing your current Bachelors reveals many entrances to various employment opportunities, there are numerous online Bachelor Course Programs available coming from institutions like The University of Phoenix, Intercontinental University Online and Kaplan. Another thing is that many brick and mortar institutions present Online types of their diplomas but typically for a greatly higher fee than the organizations that specialize in online diploma programs.
