This low-carb twist on a classic comfort dish is a true winner. Tender chicken meatballs stuffed with savory ham and smothered in creamy Swiss sauce—each bite feels indulgent without breaking your keto goals. I first served these at a cozy dinner party, and they’ve been a requested favorite ever since.
1 lb ground chicken
⅓ cup blanched almond flour
½ tsp salt
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp onion powder
1 egg, lightly beaten
6 oz ham steak, cubed into 20 pieces
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
Sauce:
¾ cup chicken broth
1 tsp Dijon mustard
½ cup heavy cream
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
Pinch cracked black pepper
2 tbsp minced fresh parsley (optional)
In a bowl, mix ground chicken, almond flour, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and egg.
Form into 20 meatballs, pressing a cube of ham into the center of each. Seal and roll.
Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Brown meatballs on all sides, then remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add broth and mustard. Simmer for 2 minutes. Stir in cream and Swiss cheese.
Return meatballs to the skillet, cover, and simmer for 10–12 minutes until cooked through.
Garnish with parsley and black pepper. Serve warm.
