Easy & family-friendly, our Thermomix Chicken Meatballs are made from chicken mince, sweet chilli sauce and soy sauce. Great for kids and toddlers!
With our little toddler in the house, I’m always on a mission to make yummy little snacks that can be eaten for lunch, dinner, popped in lunchboxes, or frozen… and these Thermomix Chicken Meatballs are exactly that!
You can serve them on their own, with a salad or vegetables, or even toss them through some pasta or rice. They’re super versatile and yummy!
I like to prepare the mixture in the Thermomix and then bake them in the oven in mini-muffin tins. The muffin tins help the meatballs to cook evenly and keep their shape perfectly.

Looks very tasty and yummy!!! Thank you for sharing
cheers to the chicken meatballs, it looks delicious.
Recipe looks tasty – going to give it a go… At what stage do you freeze – raw or cooked?

Hi Kate, I generally freeze any leftovers after cooking and reheat when I need them.
Hi.. Lucy, can you use rice crumbs instead of bread crumbs? Reckon will work?

Hi Evelyn, to be honest I’ve never used rice crumbs before so I’m not sure on their texture! I’d love to hear how they go!
