Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds ground beef
1 (7 ounce) can minced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, or to taste
1 bunch green onions, minced
¼ cup bread crumbs
1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder, or to taste
1 ½ teaspoons salt, or to taste
1 ½ teaspoons ground black pepper, or to taste
1 (16 ounce) package spaghetti
1 (15 ounce) can spaghetti sauce
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  • Mix the ground beef, chipotle peppers with the adobo sauce, green onions, bread crumbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper together in a bowl until evenly mixed. Roll the mixture into balls the size of cherry tomatoes. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through, about 30 minutes.
  • While the meatballs bake, bring a large pot of lightly-salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and return to a boil. Cook until tender but still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.
  • Pour the spaghetti sauce in a large saucepan over medium heat; cook until hot, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the cooked meatballs and stir to coat. Ladle over the drained spaghetti and top with the grated Parmesan cheese to serve.

I made a double batch of this recipe and froze half of the meatballs. They reheat really well and are perfect for a quick and easy meal. I would definitely recommend making a big batch of this recipe and freezing half of it for later.

I made a healthier version of this recipe by using ground turkey instead of beef and whole wheat spaghetti. It was still delicious and my family loved it. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a little too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said the meatballs were some of the best he's ever had. I would recommend using less chipotle powder if you don't like spicy food.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The meatballs are so moist and tender, and the chipotle sauce is the perfect balance of spicy and smoky. I like to serve it with a side of garlic bread to soak up all the delicious sa
