Make ground chicken meatballs and coat them in seasoned Panko crumbs for a beautifully browned color. Use jarred sauce from the grocery store for a shortcut in this cheesy, satisfying dish! We like it with "zoodles," but fettuccine or spaghetti would be delicious! Garlic bread and a green salad are all you need to complete this meal.

Ingredients

  • egg: 1 piece (beaten)
  • Parmesan cheese: 0.75 cup (grated)
  • ¾ cups Italian-style panko bread crumbs: 1 piece (divided)
  • garlic powder: 1 tsp
  • italian seasoning: 1 tsp
  • red pepper flakes: 0.75 tsp (crushed)
  • salt: 0.5 tsp
  • black pepper: 0.5 tsp (freshly ground)
  • ½ pounds ground chicken: 1 piece
  • olive oil: 2 Tbsp (divided)
  • unsalted butter: 2 Tbsp (divided)
  • marinara sauce: 1 jar (28 ounce jar)
  • mozzarella cheese: 0.5 cup (shredded)
  • snipped fresh parsley: 2 Tbsp (optional)
