Ingredients
- ⅓ cup Italian breadcrumbs
- ⅓ cup milk
- ½ yellow onion minced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons freshly minced parsley
- ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese optional
- 1 large egg slightly beaten
- 1 ¼ teaspoons Kosher salt

- Cooking spray (avocado, canola, or olive oil)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400° and have ready 2 rimmed baking sheets lined with nonstick aluminum foil.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine bread crumbs and milk. Stir until the crumbs have absorbed the milk. Add the minced onion, garlic, parsley, Parmesan, egg, Kosher salt, and black pepper. Stir once more to thoroughly combine. Add the ground chicken and gently mix to combine.
