  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 Tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded

Instructions

  2. Prepare Meatball Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk eggs, then add breadcrumbs, onion, parsley, garlic, salt, oregano, and pepper. Mix well.
  3. Combine with Chicken: Add ground chicken to the mixture and combine thoroughly.
  4. Shape Meatballs: Form mixture into balls and place in the slow cooker.
  5. Cook: Pour remaining sauce over meatballs. Cook on LOW for 6 hours or HIGH for 3 hours.
