Ingredients in chicken meatballs with peanut sauce

You will need minced chicken, garlic, soy sauce, 1 egg, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper and parsley for the meatballs.

You can sub the breadcrumbs for ground oats.

You may opt to leave the soy sauce out.

For the peanut sauce you will need coconut milk - I prefer using the thick part on top for creamier results.
