Chicken Meatballs With Tomato-Balsamic Glaze
- For the Meatballs
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 pound ground chicken (preferably not all breast meat)
- 1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano cheese
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons seasoned Italian bread crumbs
- Tomato-Balsamic Glaze
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- In a large bowl, combine egg, parsley, tomato paste, garlic, milk, salt and pepper. Mix well with a wire whisk, making sure the tomato paste is completely dissolved.
- Add ground chicken, grated cheese and breadcrumbs. Use your hand to mix ingredients together. Mixture will be somewhat wet. Form medium size balls (I think it's easiest to use a 3-tablespoon ice cream scooper with a wire scraper) and place onto ungreased baking sheet or very large baking dish.
- Make the glaze by combining all the ingredients in a small bowl, then brush over meatballs. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until an instant read thermometer inserted into the center of a meatball registers 160 degrees. Remove from oven and serve.
