0:22
chicken now we are making the chicken
0:25

0:29
we're going to add in half a cup of
0:41
out I'm going to grate in about 1/4 cup
0:47
cheese I'll be estimating
0:53
fresh grated Parmesan why not make it
0:57
fresh this is a lighter version of a
1:00
dish because we're using ground chicken
1:03
we got some delicious flavors going
1:07
in that looks good we're going to add in
1:11
some breadcrumbs half a cup now I'm
1:14
using panko crumbs these are crispier
1:19
pockets yeah but you can definitely use
1:21
breadcrumbs if you want we're going to
1:24
add in one teaspoon of minced
1:28
garlic smells good so I'm going to add a
1:32
more we're going to crack in some salt
1:35
about A4 of a teaspoon and black
1:44
teaspoon I'm going to take a fork we're
1:46
going to blend this all
1:52
together and we're supposed to add in
1:55
which we will right now 1 tablespoon of
2:01
go all right now we're going to mix
2:03
everything together almost left out the
2:05
most important ingredient for
2:09
flavor ground chicken is very soft so
2:12
it's really easy to mix in with other
2:20
ingredients I think we got it right
2:24
there okay we're going to use a cookie
2:27
scoop one and A2 inch
2:30
