Place ground chicken in a large bowl. In another bowl, combine the bread crumbs, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add the bread crumb mixture to the ground chicken. Add in the beaten egg and 3 tablespoons of buffalo wing sauce. Mix thoroughly.

Divide the ground chicken mixture into 32 portions and shape each portion into a meatball.
