CHICKEN MEATBALLS
These meatballs are addictive! This recipe is great for an appetizer or an entrée! I serve them with a yogurt sauce. Be ready to discover some new flavors! Enjoy the meal! Pair this food with a wonderful Chardonnay from Burgundy or a red wine from the Loire Valley, such as Saumur Champigny!
Preparation: 30 min; Cooking time: 15 min.
Serving 4-8
4 chicken breasts
2 egg yolks
1/3 cup milk
3 slices of white bread, crust removed
2 shallots, peeled
1 big onion, peeled
10 sage leaves
10 basil leaves
3 tbsp paprika
6 tbsp flour
4 tbsp oil
Salt and pepper
Place the slices of bread in a plate, cover with milk and let soak until saturated.
Using a food processor, chop the onion, shallots, sage and basil. Season with salt and pepper. Place these ingredients in a large bowl.
Cut the chicken breasts into pieces and put them in the food processor with the egg yolks, bread, 1 tbsp of flour and 1 tbsp of paprika. Season with salt and pepper. Mix until smooth.
Combine the meat with the other ingredients in the bowl.
Put 5 tbsp of flour and 2 tbsp of paprika in a plate.
Shape the meatballs and roll them into the flour and paprika.
Heat the oil in a large skillet. Fry the meatballs on all sides, about 15 minutes.
Serve with a sauce made with a plain non- fat Greek yogurt (6oz) such as Chobani, the juice of a lemon, paprika, salt and pepper.
