Chicken Ricotta Meatballs with Spinach Alfredo Sauce

Directions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

In a large bowl, gently mix together the ground chicken, ricotta cheese, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until just combined.

Take care not to overmix.

Roll the mixture into meatballs and place them on a baking sheet.

Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until cooked through and golden.

While the meatballs are baking, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Add the spinach and cook until just wilted.

Pour in the heavy cream, then stir in the nutmeg and Parmesan cheese.

Cook the sauce until it thickens, stirring occasionally.

Add the baked meatballs to the skillet and gently toss them in the creamy spinach Alfredo sauce until well coated.

Serve hot and enjoy the comforting flavors.
