Chef's tip
Ground chicken is often leaner than ground beef and can dry out more quickly. When browning it, add a little oil if needed and keep the pan juices unless the recipe says to drain them. Cook just until it reaches 165°F (74°C).
½ lb ground pork

1 large egg
3 tbsp almond flour
2 tbsp coconut aminos
Chef's tip
Soy sauce is saltier and less sweet; start with less and adjust.
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 tsp dried oregano
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and brush or drizzle with the olive oil.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, egg, almond flour, coconut aminos, garlic, parsley, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix with your hands until just combined — stop as soon as no streaks of egg or flour remain; overmixing toughens the meatballs.
