Enjoy dinner tonight with our Habanero Honey Chicken Meatballs. Fresh and clean, these are a great option to the old hamburger standby. Recipe below.
Ingredients:
1 pound ground chicken
½ red onion, very finely chopped
¼ red bell pepper, very finely chopped
¼ cup minced cilantro
1 egg
¼ cup dry bread crumbs
1 clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon dried oregano
¾ teaspoon fine sea salt
½ cup GloryBee® Habañero Honey
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon habañero hot sauce
½ teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
1 head butter lettuce, leaves separated
3 scallions, thinly sliced
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450℉. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
2. In a large bowl, combine chicken, onion, bell pepper, cilantro, egg, bread crumbs, garlic, oregano, and salt. Use your hands to mix together just until combined. Do not over mix.
3. Measure out meat mixture in level tablespoonfuls, and roll into balls. Place on prepared baking sheet, and bake until internal temperature reaches 165℉ and meatballs are lightly browned, about 10-12 minutes.
4. While meatballs cook, prepare the glaze. In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, stir together honey, vinegar, hot sauce, and pepper flakes until mixture is smooth and glossy, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
5. Brush meatballs with glaze and return to oven for 1-2 minutes. To serve, divide meatballs between lettuce leaves and sprinkle with scallions. Serve leftover glaze on the side.
