Directions:

Prepare Meatballs: In a bowl, mix together ground chicken, almond flour, egg, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until well combined. Form the mixture into small meatballs.
Cook Meatballs: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 7-8 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Make Alfredo Sauce: In the same skillet, add heavy cream, butter, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer.
Add Cheese: Add grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet and stir until melted and the sauce is creamy.
Combine and Simmer: Return the cooked meatballs to the skillet with the Alfredo sauce, tossing to coat. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat the meatballs through.
Serve: Serve the meatballs with your choice of side, such as steamed broccoli or a green salad.

Variations & Tips:

Seasoning: For more flavor in the meatballs, add Italian seasoning or red pepper flakes to the meat mixture.
Adding Veggies: Consider adding spinach or chopped zucchini to the Alfredo sauce for added nutrition and color.
Dairy-Free Option: Use coconut cream and nutritional yeast instead of heavy cream and Parmesan cheese for a dairy-free alternative.
