Chicken Parmesan Meatballs

Oh. My. God.  Eric and I have found a new love.  Chicken Parmesan Meatball Sandwiches!

1lb ground chicken breast
1 onion, finely diced
5 cloves of garlic, minced
1 egg, whisked
3/4 c Italian style panko bread crumbs
2tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1/4c chopped fresh basil
1/4-1/2c freshly grated parmesan cheese (to taste)
salt, pepper to taste
Favorite tomato sauce (I used Prego Roasted Garlic)
Mozzarella and parmesan cheese for topping
Long Kaiser rolls

Preheat oven to 375.  Line 2 baking sheets with foil and spray with cooking spray.  In a large bowl, combine chicken, onion, garlic, egg, panko, parsley, basil, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper.  Scoop 1oz of the chicken combo (about the size of a golf ball) and mold into a ball.  Place on prepared baking sheet.  Brush all of the meatballs with tomato sauce and bake for 30 minutes.  Once meatballs are cooked, heat broiler to high.  Heat remaining tomato sauce.  Place meatballs on Kaiser roll, top with sauce and cheese.  Place sandwiches on the second baking sheet and place under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching to ensure you don't burn your roll.
