Categories     Pork

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

6 ounces ground pork
6 ounces ground veal
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/3 cup dry breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon coriander, ground
1 teaspoon nutmeg, ground
1 teaspoon cumin, ground
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
1 egg
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 (14 ounce) can chopped tomatoes
1 tablespoon tomato puree
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup frozen peas

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the pork, veal, garlic, breadcrumbs, spices, egg and season with salt and pepper. Mix by hand until the mixture is smooth and leaves the side of the bowl. Refrigerate covered for one hour.
  • When ready to cook, roll tablespoons of the mixture into balls.
  • Heat one tbsp of olive oil in a frying pan and brown half the meatballs on medium-high heat (3 minutes). Drain on paper towels.
  • Add the remaining oil, if necessary, and brown the other half of the meat balls. Drain on paper towels. Set aside the meatballs while making the sauce.
  • Heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the onion on medium high until translucent (about 3 minutes). Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  • Increase the heat to high and add the wine. Boil for 1 minute.
  • Add the chopped tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano and stock and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the cayenne pepper.
  • Add the peas and the meat balls and simmer for 10 minutes or until the sauce is thick. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs for the most flavorful results. Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are more flavorful than boneless, skinless chicken breasts, and they will stay moist during cooking.
  • Sear the chicken thighs before baking them. Searing the chicken thighs will help to develop their flavor and give them a crispy skin.
  • Use a good quality sherry. A dry sherry, such as fino or manzanilla, is best for this recipe. Avoid using a sweet sherry, as it will make the dish too sweet.
  • Simmer the chicken thighs in the sherry sauce until they are cooked through. The chicken thighs should be cooked through but still juicy.
  • Serve the chicken thighs with your favorite sides. Some good options include roasted potatoes, green beans, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Tapas chicken with sherry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The chicken thighs are tender and juicy, and the sherry sauce is flavorful and rich. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
