Rachael, so you have a slow cooker?
I do mine in a slow cooker, but just as easy on the stove top:
Chicken Meatballs
Meatballs
500g chicken breast &/or thigh mince
250g Italian sausage
2 eggs
1/4 cup of milk
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
3 tablespoons sweet chilli sauce
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and crushed black pepper
~ In a bowl, beat eggs and add milk.
~ Add chicken mince and Italian sausage & mix together.
~ Add rest of ingredients and mix until combined.
~ Shape the mixture into 2cm balls and place on a greased baking sheet.
~ Bake at 180`c for 15 minutes.
~ Add to crock pot.
Sauce
1 tin chopped tomatoes
1 small tin tomato paste
1 tabslespoon tabasco sauce
1 small onion chopped
1/2 green capsicum, diced
1 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup white wine (or additional stock)
1 teaspoon sugar
~ Mix all ingredients together and pour over the meatballs.
~ Cover and cook on Low for 4 - 5 hours.
~ Serve with spaghetti & green salad.........
Thanks Lucy! Yes I do had a slow cooker, I han't thought to do them in there, so I will get it out give them a go!
With the italian sausage, is that like regular sausages, where you peel the sausage? Or something else?
I use Italian sausage meat from our local deli usually, but on other occasions I have bought fresh Italian sauages & skinned them and used the meat.....think really chunky red spicy italian sauage meat........
(That recipe is very forgiving BTW.......you can fiddle about with it a fair bit........it also makes enough meatballs for 2 meals for us, and tastes better the next time round IYKWIM?)
These were awsesome Lucy and went down a treat with DH and DS!
(DS got a bit confused, and kept asking for more 'tarnas') hee hee.
I couldn't get any Italian sausage mince anywhere, so resorted to peeling the sausages. Next time I will go into town and get some, there are a few good delis and butchers that I think would have it, within a half hour drive.
