These mozzarella meatball sliders are an inventive spin on the more traditional Chicken Parmesan, in a massively appealing small-bite form.
The recipe is comprised of chicken meatballs, stuffed with mozzarella cubes, drenched in marinara sauce and sprinkled with Parmesan. Place inside of a toasted bun, and enjoy! The meatballs are especially flavorful, containing garlic oregano, parsley, and of course, the tasty, hidden cheese surprise! They make a delicious mid-day meal: not too heavy, but definitely satisfying.
Even better is the fact that the meatballs can be refrigerated and used later for a completely different recipe. But until then, enjoy this savory little snack -- it's also a great choice for bigger events, such as Super Bowl Sunday!
