  • 1 lb Ground Chicken (Substitute with ground turkey or lean beef if desired)
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo Sauce (Adjust for spice preference)
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 cup Plain Flour
  • 2 large Eggs (Beaten)
  • 1 cup Breadcrumbs (Panko or Regular for extra crunch)

Instructions

  1. Cook and crumble bacon. Set aside.
  2. In a bowl, mix ground chicken, buffalo sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and bacon.
  3. Portion mixture into even pieces. Press a mozzarella cube into the center and form into tight balls.
  4. Chill balls for 30 minutes on a tray.
  5. Prepare three stations: flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs.
  6. Dredge each ball in flour, dip in egg, then coat with breadcrumbs.

  8. Drain on paper towels or a wire rack.
  9. Serve hot with dips.

Notes

Chill formed bombs before frying to prevent cheese leakage. You can also bake them for a lighter version.
