Feta Chicken Meatballs

These Dill and Feta Chicken Meatballs are always on repeat at our house. They're delicious as leftovers in a grain bowl or atop a Greek salad, or served simply with orzo and a dill yogurt sauce! They're meal prep friendly, quick and easy to make (ready in under 45 minutes) and packed with protein.
These dill and feta chicken meatballs are one of my husband's favorites. The meatball mixture is just 8 ingredients (mostly pantry staples!) and it comes together without any fuss in less than 45 minutes.
We like to serve these with cooked orzo and a simple yogurt dill sauce (similar to tzatziki, but without the cucumber). They're also delicious as a topping for tahini pasta or lemony, herby white bean artichoke salad. If you're not in the mood for pasta, simple herb roasted potatoes make for a perfect companion.
Leftovers are great for adding to a quick grain bowl or just eating as is!
Feel free to sub in lean ground beef or turkey instead of chicken for the meatballs. To make these gluten free, use your favorite gluten free breadcrumbs.
