Instructions:​

Making the Meatballs:​

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, minced onion, minced garlic, egg, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  3. Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Drizzle the olive oil over the meatballs and roll them around to coat evenly.
  5. Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are cooked through and golden brown.

Making the Sauce:​

  1. While the meatballs are baking, prepare the sauce. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
  2. Add the thinly sliced onions to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.
  3. Add minced garlic and dried thyme to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the beef broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for another 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
  5. If you prefer a thicker sauce, sprinkle the flour over the onion mixture and stir well to combine. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  6. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.

Serving:​

  1. Once the meatballs are cooked, transfer them to the skillet with the sauce. Gently toss to coat the meatballs in the French onion sauce.
