Ingredients
400 grams Chicken breast, ground
1 teaspoon Sea salt
1 tablespoon Soy sauce
1 teaspoon Baking powder
½ cup Water
Directions
In a mixing bowl, combine ground chicken breast, sea salt, soy sauce, and baking powder. Mix gently by hand until just combined; do not overmix, as this can make the meatballs tough.
Form the mixture into 8–10 meatballs of roughly equal size, about 1.5 inches in diameter.
Bring water to a gentle simmer in a pot or skillet over medium heat.
Carefully place the meatballs into the simmering water. They will initially sink; maintain a gentle simmer and cook for 12–15 minutes until they float to the surface and remain floating, indicating they are cooked through. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
Using a slotted spoon, remove the meatballs from the water and transfer to a serving plate. Serve warm as a main course.
