CHEESY CHICKEN PARM VOLCANOS

Steps:

• For the breadcrumb coating:.
• Place the 2 cups of breadcrumbs in a large skillet. Drizzle on the olive oil and sprinkle with the dried parsley. Toast over a medium-high heat on the stove, stirring often, until the breadcrumbs are warmed through and golden. Remove from the heat and transfer to a wide, shallow dish.
• For the egg coating:.
• In a wide, shallow bowl, whisk the egg, water, cornstarch and flour until smooth.
• For the chicken parm:.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick liner.
• In a medium bowl mix the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, milk, onion, parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Mix very well until combined.
• Divide the chicken into 8 equal balls. Flatten each ball into a disk, place a cube of mozzarella cheese in the centre of each disk, then wrap the chicken around the cube of cheese. Use your hands to shape each meatball into a cone (like a volcano).
• Dip each meatball into the egg coating, gently turning it to coat well. Next, dip in the breadcrumbs making sure that every meatball is very well-coated.
• Set on a lined baking sheet and bake 18-22 minutes until chicken is cooked through. (If you opt for larger meatballs, as seen in the video, you'll need to bake them longer, 20-25 minutes or until cooked through.)
• Remove from the oven and drizzle pizza sauce on top of each meatball and sprinkle on the grated mozzarella.
• Set the oven to broil and return the meatballs to the oven to melt the cheese on top (3-5 minutes).
• Remove from the oven and garnish with parsley.
