CURRY CHICKEN MEATBALLS



Curry Chicken Meatballs image

My favorite Indian takeout dish is chicken curry, so I was inspired to take some of its flavors and mix them into another of my go-to dishes, meatballs. I use ground chicken, cilantro, cumin and curry powder, plus a touch of lime zest and some jalapeno for heat. The recipe makes plenty of meatballs, so if you're lucky you'll have some leftover for a lunch the next day.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 red onion, quartered
2 teaspoons olive oil, plus extra for the onion
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 cup cilantro leaves, finely chopped, plus more for serving
1 large egg
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 jalapeno, finely chopped
Zest of 1 lime
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound ground chicken
Cooked white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Toss the onion and enough olive oil to coat together on a small sheet pan and roast in the oven until browned and soft, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the panko, cilantro, egg, garlic, jalapeno, lime zest, cumin, curry powder, salt and pepper. Mix well. Add the chicken and combine all the ingredients until everything is well mixed.
  • Form the meatballs with a #50 (.68-ounce) ice-cream scoop or by heaping tablespoons and place on a sheet pan. Round the meatballs gently by hand.
  • Heat the 2 teaspoons oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and reduce the heat to medium. Cook until just browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the meatballs are cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Serve the meatballs over rice with the roasted onion and more cilantro leaves.

THAI-INSPIRED CHICKEN MEATBALL SOUP



Thai-Inspired Chicken Meatball Soup image

This stellar soup is reviving and cozy, made in one pot, and ready in 30 minutes. It starts with ginger-scented chicken-cilantro meatballs that are browned, then simmered in a fragrant coconut milk broth that's inspired by tom kha gai, a Thai chicken-coconut soup seasoned with lemongrass, galangal, makrut lime leaves and chile. A heap of spinach is added for color and flavor, and a squeeze of lime adds brightness and punch. The soup is brothy, so serve it over rice or another grain to make it a full meal.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (4-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled
6 garlic cloves, peeled
1 jalapeño
2 pounds ground chicken
1 large bunch cilantro, leaves and stems finely chopped, a few whole leaves reserved for serving
3 tablespoons fish sauce
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons vegetable or coconut oil, plus more as needed
2 cups chicken broth
1 (14-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
5 ounces baby spinach
1 tablespoon lime juice, plus lime wedges for serving
Steamed white or brown rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Using the small holes of a box grater, or a Microplane, grate the ginger, garlic and jalapeño (or finely chop them by hand). Transfer half to a large bowl and set the rest aside. To the large bowl, add the chicken, finely chopped cilantro, 2 tablespoons fish sauce and 1 teaspoon salt. Use your hands or a fork to fully combine but do not overmix.
  • Use your hands or an ice cream scoop to form 2-inch meatballs (about 2 ounces each). In a large Dutch oven or pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add the meatballs in a single layer and cook, flipping halfway through, until golden brown on two sides, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate and repeat, adding oil as needed.
  • Once all the meatballs are browned and out of the pot, if the oil is burned, wipe it out and add a bit more to the pot. Reduce the heat to medium, add the reserved ginger mixture and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the chicken broth, coconut milk, sugar and the remaining 1 tablespoon fish sauce, and bring to a simmer. Add the meatballs and any juices from the plate, and simmer until the flavors come together and the meatballs are cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, and stir in the spinach and lime juice. Divide rice among bowls, then top with meatballs, broth and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around looking for things while you're cooking.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your meatballs will taste. Look for fresh, organic vegetables and herbs, and use free-range or organic chicken.
  • Don't over-mix the meatball mixture: Over-mixing can make the meatballs tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Use a large skillet or Dutch oven: You want to make sure you have enough space for the meatballs to cook evenly without overcrowding them.
  • Cook the meatballs over medium heat: This will help them cook through without burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure you leave enough space between the meatballs so they can cook evenly.
  • Serve the meatballs immediately: Green curry chicken meatballs are best served hot, with a side of rice or noodles.

Conclusion:

Green curry chicken meatballs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a tasty and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give green curry chicken meatballs a try. You won't be disappointed!
