chicken and rice meatballs with hummus
I'm in love. This meal was just right. I found the recipe earlier this week while waiting for my kids at their orthodontist appointment (lucky find!). This is going to be a regular at my house. I rushed making dinner to get a picture before dark but it didn't work out- the Pacific Northwest is like that. Look up the recipe online for a professional pic!
Note: I liked the salad a bit on the wilty side so next time I'll make it a few minutes before it's time to eat.
chicken and rice meatballs with hummus (adapted from bon appetite magazine, Dec 2019)
6 green onions, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon ginger powder
1 pound ground chicken (from Trader Joes)
1 1/2 cups cooled cooked jasmine rice
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 small white onion, thinly sliced
4 small dill pickles, sliced
2 persian cucumbers, sliced
4 cups salad mix
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice mixed with 1/2 teaspoon salt
hummus, to serve (use Trader Joe's spicy hummus- it's soooo good!)
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Gently mix green onions, garlic, ginger, chicken, rice, curry powder and salt in a medium bowl. Form mixture into 15 balls. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until lightly browned and cooked through, about 20 minutes.
Toss onion, pickles, cucumbers, salad mix, and lemon juice in a medium bowl to combine.
Spread hummus on plates; top with meatballs and salad.
