One Pan Chicken Meatballs With Orzo
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine chicken, bread crumbs, cheese, milk, egg, parsley, Italian seasoning, salt, garlic, onion powder, and pepper. Mix well but don't overmix; make sure there are no clumps of bread crumbs in the mixture. Let sit for 10-20 minutes for the bread crumbs to absorb excess moisture.

  2. Roll into 1-1¼" balls.

  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of oil and sear the meatballs on all sides until golden brown.

  4. Remove to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

  5. Add the garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute.

  6. Add the broth and scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to deglaze. Bring it to a low boil.

  7. Add the orzo, cream, parmesan, salt, and pepper, and stir. Place the meatballs on top, cover, and simmer over medium-low heat for 10 minutes until the orzo is al dente. It might look liquidy at first, but it will thicken quickly!

  8. Taste and serve.
