Ingredients
- Nonstick aluminum foil
- 2 lb ground chicken
- 1 cup plain panko breadcrumbs
- 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons chunky garlic stir-in paste
- 2 large eggs (or ½ cup egg substitute)
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 1 cup Buffalo wing sauce
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper

Steps
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Line 2 baking sheets with foil. Combine chicken, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, onion powder, paprika, garlic paste, and eggs. Form into 48 golf ball–size meatballs; arrange 1 inch apart on baking sheets (wash hands). Bake 10 minutes.
- Combine brown sugar, wing sauce, vinegar, and red pepper in small saucepan on medium; cook 10–12 minutes until sauce is reduced by about one-half (sauce will thicken as it sits).
- Brush meatballs with sauce; bake 2–3 more minutes until meatballs are 165°F. Toss meatballs with remaining sauce; sprinkle with onions. Serve.
