1 large egg

1/2 tsp oregano

1 tsp smoked paprika

1/2 Kosher salt or to taste

Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions:

Combine the chicken, breadcrumbs, 1 tbsp of buffalo sauce, egg, cumin, parsley, paprika, onion, oregano, garlic, and salt and pepper in a bowl. Gently mix until well combined, being careful not to overmix. Using a cookie scoop, remove scoops of the mixture, and put them onto the prepared baking sheet.

Set your air fryer to 400° F (220° C) and preheat for 3 minutes. Once preheated, place the meatballs in and cook at 400° F (220°C) for 10 minutes or until the internal temperature reads 165° F.

Once the meatballs are cooked, add to the buffalo sauce and toss to coat well.
