WHAT YOU'LL NEED

1 pound ground chicken
1 egg
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1 tbsp olive oil
1 jalapeño, seeded and minced (optional)
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp fresh ginger or ginger paste
1 tbsp cumin
2 tsp turmeric
Salt and pepper
Cilantro to garnish

HOW YOU'LL MAKE IT

Add olive oil to a sauté pan, turn pan to medium-low heat.

Mince your jalapeños, remove seeds beforehand, your garlic, and ginger and add to the pan, cook for 2-3 minutes and remove from heat.

Preheat your oven to 375F.

To a mixing bowl add your chicken, egg, bread crumbs, jalapeño mixture, and seasonings and mix. If they’re a littlesticky add some more breadcrumbs.Form your meatballs and add to a sheet pan. Cook for 12-15 minutes.

I serve mine with rice and charred sautéed red onions and plain yogurt.

Garnish with cilantro and enjoy!
