- 1 pound ground chicken lean
- 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs Italian
- 1/4 cup pecorino romano cheese grated
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1/4 cup water or milk
- chopped parsley handful fresh
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- red onion small, small dice
- 6 cloves garlic sliced
- 10 ounces baby bella mushrooms sliced
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme
- 1 cup marsala wine
- 2 1/2 cups chicken stock
- 3 garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons diced red onion small
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 1 cup polenta quick cooking
- 1/3 cup pecorino romano cheese grated
- 4 tablespoons butter

- Start by making the meatballs. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
- Mix all the ingredients for the meatballs together in a bowl. Using a small cookie scoop form your meatballs {about 1 in diameter}. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes.
- While the meatballs are in the oven you can start the marsala sauce.
- In a large saucepan, over medium low heat, add the butter and oil. Add in the garlic, onion, thyme and mushrooms. Cook until softened.
- Add in the marsala wine and cook until reduced by about half.
- Add in the chicken stock/broth and simmer on low for 15/20 mins.
- Now the polenta. This part you'll want to do just before serving so it remains nice and creamy.
- In a large pan, over medium low heat, add a drizzle of olive oil, the garlic and onion. Cook until softened. Add in the stock and allow t come to a simmer.
- Shut the heat and whisk in the polenta, continue whisking until all the liquid is absorbed and to prevent clumping.
- Stir in some fresh parsley, the grated cheese and butter.
- To serve, add a nice scoop of the creamy polenta to a deep bowl, top with 4-5 mini meatballs, pour some of the marsala sauce over top and garnish with a little more fresh parsley.
