Meatballs In Chipotle Sauce Recipe 435

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Mix beef, bread crumbs, dried onion, cilantro, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl.
• Finely chop chipotle peppers and add peppers, adobo sauce, and egg to meat mixture. Mix well. Roll into 1 1/2-inch meatballs.
• Heat a skillet over high heat. Brown meatballs in the hot skillet, turning as needed, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the centers, 8 to 10 minutes.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine pork, onion, zucchini, egg, breadcrumbs, oregano, cumin, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; mix well with a fork. Form into 16 (2-inch) balls; transfer to a plate, and place in freezer until firm, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine tomatoes and chiles in a blender; process until smooth, and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large, straight-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the meatballs; cook until brown, turning often, 4 to 5 minutes; transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining oil and meatballs.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Add pureed sauce and return all meatballs to skillet. Cover; simmer, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes. Uncover, and simmer until sauce is thickened, 5 to 10 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper. Serve over rice, sprinkled with cilantro, as desired.

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine pork, beef, ground cumin, garlic, eggs, bread crumbs, salt & pepper. Mix well. Shape into medium size meatballs. Bake for 10-15 minutes (or until firm enough to "stew").

• In a large pot, bring sauce to a boil. Add meatballs and simmer for 25 minutes.
