CHICKEN MEATBALLS:
The key to this recipe is the chicken meatballs. Ground chicken doesn’t have a whole lot of flavor on its own so it is important that these are seasoned well and that they come out juicy and tender.
I season my ground chicken with salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder, and Italian seasoning. We also add parmesan for extra flavor and a drizzle of olive oil to keep them moist. Panko and egg bind the meatballs together.
When you first sear the meatballs they won’t be cooked through completely, but, they should be nicely browned on all sides. They will finish cooking in the easy alfredo sauce! That also gives them tons of extra flavor!

MEATBALL SUBS:
Meatball subs are so easy to make in one skillet! No need to pull out any special equipment, or wait for the meatballs to bake! You will form your chicken mixture into balls, then sear them over medium-high heat until browned. Next, remove them from the pan and make your Alfredo sauce.
You will make the sauce without adding the cheese at this point, and add the meatballs back to the pan. Allow them to simmer, covered, for about 10 minutes until they’re completely cooked through.
While the meatballs simmer, I lightly butter my hoagies (or you can just use hot dog buns) and broil them for a couple of minutes until they’re golden. Once the meatballs are ready, you can stir the parmesan cheese into the meatballs and sauce just until the cheese has melted. Then add the meatballs to your prepared buns, sprinkle with parsley if you wish, and you’re ready to eat!

Enjoy!
