I’m such a sucker for anything buffalo, but traditional wings come at a cost. Wings are already pretty fatty on their own, and if you order buffalo wings in a restaurant, they’re likely breaded, deep fried, and THEN tossed in a butter-laden buffalo sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These meatballs, on the other hand, are made with lean ground chicken, baked, and tossed with a buffalo sauce that’s a little lighter on the butter (without skimping on flavor). <\/em>They’re perfect for serving on game day as an appetizer with blue cheese dressing for dipping, or throwing in a salad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s learn how to make these awesome, juicy chicken meatballs (which are great on their own, too!)<\/em>, as well as how to make homemade buffalo sauce with ketchup added for extra flavor and thickness while taking the butter down a notch.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
