Ingredients

1 serving cooking spray
1 pound ground chicken
1 cup panko bread crumbs
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons minced onion
1 teaspoon ginger paste
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon curry powder
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 ½ cups diced onions
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon ginger paste
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon garam masala
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 (15 ounce) jar tomato sauce
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup water
3 tablespoons salted butter

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with cooking spray.
Mix ground chicken, bread crumbs, olive oil, onion, ginger paste, garlic, curry powder, salt, and pepper together in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Roll mixture into thirty 1-inch balls and place on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onions, garlic, and ginger paste; saute until onions become soft, about 5 minutes. Add sugar, garam masala, cumin, ginger, curry powder, cinnamon, chicken bouillon, paprika, cayenne, turmeric, onion powder, and salt; stir to combine. Stir in tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, heavy cream, and water. Cook until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Add butter and stir to melt.
Cook sauce over medium-low heat for 30 minutes. Stir cooked meatballs into the sauce.

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into bite size pieces
2 onions, chopped
4 green chile peppers, chopped
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons ginger garlic paste
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 cups water
1 tablespoon garam masala
1 pinch ground turmeric
salt to taste

Steps:

Rinse chicken pieces and pat dry. Set aside. Grind poppy seeds into a paste.
In a large skillet, saute onions and green chiles in oil until golden brown. Add ginger garlic paste and continue to saute. Add poppy seed paste and reserved chicken pieces, continuing to saute. Stir all together; after chicken is well mixed with the 'gravy', add the red chili powder and pour 2 cups of water over the mixture. Cover skillet and let simmer about 12 to 15 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
After chicken is 'well-boiled' (the oil should be floating on top of the skillet liquid), add the garam masala and turmeric powder and turn off the stove. Stir all together and serve.

Tips:

To make the chicken meatballs more flavorful, use a combination of ground chicken thighs and breasts. Thighs add more flavor, while breasts help keep the meatballs moist.
Be sure to season the chicken meatballs well with salt, pepper, and your favorite spices. This will help them develop a nice crust when they are cooked.
To make the curry sauce, use a good quality curry powder. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish.
If you don't have any heavy cream on hand, you can substitute coconut milk or yogurt.
Garnish the chicken curry meatballs with chopped cilantro or green onions before serving.

Conclusion:

This spicy chicken curry meatballs recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The meatballs are tender and juicy, and the curry sauce is rich and flavorful. Serve the meatballs over rice or noodles, or with your favorite sides. You can also freeze the meatballs for later use.
