Make a lot of these little appetizers, they go fast! You will need:

  • 2 cups ground cooked chicken
  • 2 Tablespoons chopped chives
  • 1 teaspoon prepared mustard
  • salt and pepper
  • 3/4 teaspoon liquid smoke
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons milk
  • fine dry bread crumbs
  • paprika
MUSTARD DIP
  • salad dressing or mayonnaise
  • soft honey
  • prepared mustard
Put first 8 ingredients into a bowl. Mix well adding a bit more milk if needed to hold shape. Roll into 1 inch balls.

Mix bread crumbs with paprika, coat balls and chill.

Mustard Dip: Mix mayo , honey and mustard in a small bowl. Spear smoked balls with wooden pick to dip before eating. Makes 1/2 cup dip and 32 meatballs. recipe from COMPANY'S COMING - Chicken Etc. by Jean Pare'

I added this recipe to the Family Favorites because Jim prepared this as an appetizer for a delicious duck dinner and I could have eaten them all by myself. JIm made them again a few days later and I ate most of them. This is a new family favorite around here~

  1. I just think the name is funny. When I called Dad Sunday and he said he'd be over after he ate his chicken nibbles I thought maybe he was getting into Hawk's food dish. =) Now that I see the recipe - they do look tastier than doggy chow!
