sweet 'n sour chicken balls
Chicken balls? I laughed, too, the first time I heard that said. But using ground beef would be too overpowering for something as delicately sweet and sour as the sauce that accompanies this popular appetizer.
Makes 4 servings
1 lb Ground chicken
3 Tbs Steak sauce or Tonkatsu sauce
1/4 Cup Bread crumbs
1 Egg, beaten
2 Cups Sweet 'n sour sauce
8 oz Pineapple chunks, drained
1 medium Green bell pepper, sliced
6 Mushrooms, sliced
Mix the ground chicken, steak sauce, bread crumbs and beaten egg together. Form the ground meat
mixture into small meatballs.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the meatballs until throughtly heated and browned. Remove from
skillet; drain on paper towels.
Prepare the sweet 'n sour sauce. Add the pineapple chunks, and green pepper and mushroom slices to
the sauce.
Place the meatballs in a serving bowl and pour over them the sweet 'n sour sauce combination, allowing your guests
to use toothpicks to pick up the meatballs. - Or - Run two or three meatballs thru with a bamboo skewer, and use
the sauce as a dip.
