This Low FODMAP Chicken Piccata Meatballs with Spaghetti is a fun, flavorful twist on the classic dish—bright lemon sauce with briny capers and tender chicken meatballs tossed with gluten-free spaghetti. It’s a quick and easy weeknight meal that feels a little fancy *without* the fuss!
Classic chicken piccata is an Italian-American favorite featuring pan-fried chicken coated in wheat flour and served with a buttery lemon sauce, often including capers, parsley, garlic, and/or shallots.
Although delicious, classic ingredients like wheat flour, garlic, and shallots are higher in FODMAPs—and the traditional pan-frying method adds extra cleanup.
To keep all the bright, zesty flavors without the FODMAPs—or the mess—I’ve created a baked chicken meatball version with a low FODMAP piccata sauce. It’s an easy, flavorful twist that’s gentle on your gut and simple to make!
