How
To Make Chicken Piccata Meatballs :
In
a large bowl, combine the first 6 ingredients. Add chicken; mix lightly but
thoroughly. With wet hands, shape into 1-in. balls.
In
a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Brown meatballs in
batches; drain. Remove and keep warm. In the same skillet, heat remaining 1
tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add garlic; cook 1 minute.
Add
broth and wine to pan; increase heat to medium-high. Cook 1 minute, stirring to

5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; stir in butter until
melted. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve with lemon wedges.
