Last night I made a really tasty dish that I am sure you will love! These chicken meatballs are full of flavor and filled with yummy stuff. They are great with pasta (creamy sauce with mushrooms, squash and shallots) as seen above, in a salad, apart of Tapas, on toast... Yes, with anything! Also, if you are a student - make many and have in your freezer, and one day you don't have much time to cook, they are right there:)
You need for 3 people:
400 g chicken mince
1 large tbsp of good quality green pesto (basil)
1 chili
2 cloves of garlic
1 tbsp of minced fresh ginger
3 shallots
2 tbsp pf chopped fresh basil
Salt and pepper to season (just remember the pesto is a bit salty, so be careful with the salt)
1 egg
2 tbsp of flour
How to:
Chop all ingredients into really fine slices as seen above. Add it all to a bowl with the mince and the egg and flour, salt and pepper and mix thoroughly. Let is set for half an hour or more so all the flavors really get working. The mix should be quite sticky - but not runny so it falls apart.
Use two table spoons to create nice little balls and fry them with some olive oil. First on high heat to get some color and then I turn it down to low. I like to put a lid on so it goes a bit quicker. When the balls feel "compact" when you touch them, they are finished. It takes around 5 minutes. If you are unsure test one - and its also sometimes smart to just make one and try it out for seasoning etc. Boring making them all if they lack some salt or other ingredients!
Finished product!
ENJOY!!
