SWEET AND SOUR MEATBALLS

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup rice vinegar or white vinegar
1/4 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
2 1/4 cups pineapple juice
1 tablespoon cornstarch
25 frozen meatballs, recipe follows
1 tablespoon sriracha or other hot sauce, more to taste
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 cup drained canned or fresh pineapple chunks
4 tablespoons sliced green onions
4 1/2 cups cooked long-grain or basmati rice, for serving
5 pounds ground beef
1 1/2 cups plain breadcrumbs
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 heaping tablespoons grainy mustard
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
4 large eggs
Olive oil, for frying

Steps:

  • In a large skillet (with a lid), combine the brown sugar, vinegar, ketchup, soy sauce and 2 cups of the pineapple juice. Stir the mixture around and bring it to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. To thicken the sauce, make a slurry by mixing the cornstarch with the remaining 1/4 cup pineapple juice in a small bowl until smooth. Add it to the sauce, whisking to combine.
  • Add the frozen meatballs, sriracha and bell pepper and toss to combine. Cover the skillet and cook until the sauce has thickened and the meatballs are heated through, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Stir in the pineapple, then sprinkle in 2 tablespoons of the green onions. Serve the meatballs and sauce over rice and sprinkle on the rest of the green onions at the end.
  • Combine the beef, breadcrumbs, milk, parsley, cream, mustard, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes and eggs in a large bowl. Knead it all together with your hands until well combined.
  • Scoop out 1-tablespoon portions of the meat mixture and roll into neat balls. Put them on parchment paper-lined rimmed baking sheets as you go, then put the sheets in the freezer for about 10 minutes to firm them up before frying.
  • To brown the meatballs, heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add some meatballs to the skillet and cook on all sides until they have great color on the surface and are fully cooked inside, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain the meatballs on paper towels when they're done, then line them up on clean parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Cook the remaining meatballs.
  • Put the baking sheets in the freezer, uncovered, until the meatballs are frozen and firm on the surface, 30 to 45 minutes. Then just pop the meatballs into 5 to 7 freezer bags (roughly 25 per bag) and freeze them immediately. They'll be there when you need them.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of meats to create flavorful meatballs. Ground beef, pork, and chicken are all popular choices, but you can also try using lamb, veal, or venison.
  • Add some vegetables to the meatballs for extra flavor and texture. Chopped onion, celery, and carrots are all good options.
  • Use panko breadcrumbs instead of regular breadcrumbs. Panko breadcrumbs are lighter and airier, and they help to keep the meatballs moist.
  • Bake the meatballs instead of frying them. Baking is a healthier cooking method, and it also helps to keep the meatballs moist.
  • Make sure the sauce is thick and flavorful. Sweet and sour sauce is a classic choice, but you can also try other sauces, such as barbecue sauce, teriyaki sauce, or honey garlic sauce.
