My hubby’s fave dish ever! We always skip the takeout!
Orange chicken meatballs are a delightful twist on the classic Asian-inspired orange chicken.
This recipe brings a bit of tangy sweetness to your dinner table, perfect for nights when you want something that’s both flavorful and easy to prepare.
Plus, the meatballs can be a fun alternative to the usual chicken dishes, perfect for family dinners, meal prep, or even a casual get-together with friends.
These orange chicken meatballs pair wonderfully with some steamed white rice or your favorite fried rice recipe.
A side of broccoli, snow peas, or a mixed vegetable stir-fry can add a nice balance and make for a complete meal.
If you’re hosting a party, serve these meatballs as a fun appetizer with some toothpicks and a side of extra sauce for dipping.
