- Keep a Gap of Few Inches between each meatball: Do not keep the Meatballs sticking to each other. Keep a gap of few inches between each meatball while baking them.
- Cook in a skillet: If you want, you can cook these Chicken Meatballs in the skillet. Heat Canola Oil or Vegetable Oil in a Pan. As the Oil shimmers, add the Chicken Meatballs and fry them until both sides get crispy and golden brown.
