Creamy baked chicken balls are a tender and aromatic dish of European cuisine that combines the juiciness of chicken fillet, the spiciness of garlic, and the richness of cream sauce. Historically, recipes based on baking meat in cream trace back to French and Italian culinary traditions where cream adds softness and sophistication to the dish. These balls are characterized by their lightness and versatility: they are suitable for both family dinners and festive tables. The crispy cheese crust harmoniously complements the tender texture of the meat, while spices enhance its natural flavor. This dish is usually served with vegetables or a light side to balance the creamy richness and create a complete gastronomic experience.
