Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, minced garlic, finely chopped onion, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until fully combined. Pour this mixture into the chicken mixture.
Add the salt and black pepper. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined. Do not over-mix, as this can make the meatballs tough.
Using your hands, shape the mixture into 1.5-inch meatballs, placing them on a large plate or baking sheet as you go.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the meatballs in batches, searing each side for about 2 minutes until they are golden brown but not fully cooked through.
Transfer the seared meatballs to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly greased baking pan.
Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve hot alongside your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them over spaghetti and marinara sauce.
