Preheat the oven to 200 °C or approx 400 °F
Prep a baking tray, you can either oil it or line it with baking paper, I oil mine
Prep the broccoli, I love grating the stalk of a head of broccoli for this recipe. Remove the stalk, give it a rough peel, ie remove any very hard bits, then grate. You want around ½ a cup
Put all the ingredients in a bowl
Remove any rings, dampen/wet your hands with (it stops everything sticking to your fingers), get in there and scrunch everything around until it is well mixed
Use a spoon to make even sized balls I use my 15 ml tablespoon and get around 28 balls from the mix. roll them in your wet hands then place on the baking tray you prepared earlier
Bake in the hot oven for approximately 20 minutes or until cooked

Notes
If you want to up the flavour a little a quite like this recipe with 1 tablespoon wholegrain mustard, my kids don't though lol
A squirt of Worcestershire sauce can also be a nice addition
I don't season with extra salt as I use these for baby-led weaning, but you could add salt and pepper as you need
For a wheat-free option I have made these chicken rissoles with rolled oats instead of breadcrumbs
For an egg-free option, I have made this recipe with a chia egg (ie soak 1 tablespoon of chia seeds in 2 tablespoon of water, wait for them to gel then add to the mince mix.
Either eat them hot straight after cooking or pop them in the fridge and eat them cold over the next 2 days
You can free these chicken bites, pop them in the microwave and heat until piping hot when you want a little protein snack or quick kids meal
