## Ingredients

- 450 g ground chicken
- 1 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 salt
- 1 pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 cups fresh spinach
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes

## Instructions

1. Prepare the meatball mixture: In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, Parmesan, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined but don’t overwork the meat.
2. Shape the mixture into small balls (about 1-2 inches in diameter).
3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the meatballs, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides and cooked through (about 10-12 minutes). Remove the meatballs and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, add butter and sauté garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute).
5. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Add salt and pepper and cayenne pepper to taste.
6. Add spinach and mix well. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes.
7. Return the meatballs to the skillet and spoon the creamy spinach sauce over them. Let them simmer for 2-3 minutes to absorb the flavors.
8. Serve hot, with your choice of pasta, rice, or bread to soak up the creamy sauce.
