Cocktail Meatballs

 One of my go to dinners to make is meatballs- chicken meatballs, turkey or beef are all great! However, the recipe I made 2 two nights ago by far beat the regular steps and routine of cooking what I usually do. 

It was a bit of a different process- instead of just combining and mixing together bread, eggs, spices and the meat together, I first mixed together milk and breadcrumbs. This makes it more of a paste and a consistency to be a good layer for the rest of the recipe. And instead of a whole egg, it called for just the egg yolk. 

There was also a tomato sauce to go with that was easy to make. After you cook the meatballs, you take them out of the skillet and heat the remaining grease and oil, add the onions, chicken broth and white wine and stir, yum! I knew it would be a tasteful combination at the end. You add tomatoes and tomato sauce as well, stir and simmer and then add the meatballs for continuing cooking with the sauce. 

It was a delicious result and so much better than my standard Syrian meatball recipe. This one is definitely a keeper! 


*I used ground chicken in this dish. It originally calls for ground beef and ground pork.
