3-4 tablespoons cilantro minced

1 clove garlic

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

(optional: ¾ tsp cumin)

Directions

Toss chicken with zucchini, green onion, cilantro, garlic, salt, and pepper (and cumin, if using). Mixture will be quite wet.

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a medium pan over medium heat. Use a small scoop or a heaped tablespoon to scoop meatballs into the pan. Cook 8-10 at a time for about 5-6 minutes on the first side. Flip and cook an additional 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown and the centers are cooked through.

Serve with guacamole, salsa, or your favorite dip.
