Notes

Note 1: The water content of ground chicken can vary. If your mixture is too wet and difficult to form into meatballs, trying adding a little more cornstarch or adding panko in the mix.

Sometimes it helps to cut the meatballs in half for layering on the sandwiches! And sometimes you can just go big and messy and not worry about it!

When I use naan (as pictured), I just use half of the naan per person, and then fold it in half almost like a quesadilla or more of a flat sandwich.
