Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Prepare a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, egg, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, minced garlic, parsley, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until well combined.
- Roll the mixture into medium-sized balls, about the size of golf balls, and place them on the baking tray.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F).
- To prepare the creamy sauce, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, add flour, then whisk in milk until thickened. Stir in parmesan, mozzarella, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
- Transfer the chicken bombs to a casserole dish, pour the creamy sauce over, and broil for 3–5 minutes until bubbly and golden.
- Serve over mashed potatoes or cauliflower purée, drizzling with any remaining sauce and garnishing with herbs.

Notes
Avoid overmixing the chicken mixture for tender bombs. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Freeze uncooked shaped bombs for up to 3 months.
