Provided by Minute Rice

Categories     Trusted Brands: Recipes and Tips     Minute® Rice

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups Minute® Brown Rice, uncooked
1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple, divided
1 (20 ounce) package ground turkey or chicken
¾ cup green onions, thinly sliced, divided
½ cup teriyaki sauce, divided
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons orange marmalade

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare rice according to package directions.
  • Drain 1/2 cup crushed pineapple for meatballs. Reserve remaining pineapple and juice for sauce.
  • Combine ground turkey or chicken, cooked rice, 1/2 cup pineapple, 1/2 cup green onions, 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce, egg, ginger and nutmeg in large bowl. Mix well.
  • Scoop mixture and gently roll into desired meatball size (we suggest about the size of a golf ball); place meatballs on aluminum foil-lined baking sheet with sides. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until meatballs are done.
  • While meatballs are baking, to make sauce, combine remaining pineapple and juice, remaining 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce and orange marmalade in medium saucepan; heat to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in remaining 1/4 cup green onions.
  • Top cooked meatballs with sauce.

These meatballs were a waste of time and ingredients. They were bland and tasteless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but these meatballs were a disaster. They fell apart when I tried to cook them and the sauce was watery. I won't be trying this recipe again.

These meatballs were not what I expected. They were too soft and the sauce was too thick. I won't be making these again.

These meatballs were okay, but I've had better. I think the sauce could use more flavor.

I found these meatballs to be a bit dry. I think I would add more liquid to the sauce next time.

These meatballs were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. I'll try making them again with less sugar next time.

I've made these meatballs several times now and they always turn out great. They're moist and flavorful, and the sauce is delicious. I like to serve them over rice or noodles.
