Chicken balls are a food consisting of small, spherical or nearly spherical pieces of chicken. They are prepared and eaten in several different cuisines.
Chicken balls (Chinese: 鸡球; pinyin: jī qiú) are a type of modern Chinese food served in Canada,[1][2][3] the United States, and the United Kingdom[4] as a staple of Chinese take-out. The dish consists of small chunks of fried chicken breast meat covered in a crispy batter coating. They are often served with curry sauce, sweet and sour sauceorplum sauce. These are largely unheard of in China, depending on the recipe and referred name.[5][failed verification]
Another kind of chicken balls, which are similar to southern Chinese fish balls, may be found in countries in East and Southeast Asia, such as the Philippines[6] and Japan (tsukune).[7]
Chicken balls are also a part of several other culinary traditions, including Italian Jewish cuisine[8] and Islamic cuisine.[9][10]
