Honey-Chipotle Meatballs
 
 
Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground turkey (or substitute ground beef, if you prefer)
  • ⅓ cup yellow onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
  • 3-4 tablespoons honey, plus more for dipping
  • 2-4 tablespoons chopped chipotle chilies in adobo sauce (we used 4 since we like it spicy; if you're not sure, start on the low end and add more if needed)
  • 3 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
Method
  1. Preheat oven to 375. In a medium bowl, mix together ground turkey, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper until just combined. Form into meatballs - I got about 16 meatballs when forming mine. In a separate bowl, stir together honey, chilies, and vinegar.
  2. In an ovenproof skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add meatballs and cook until browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven and bake about 5 minutes. Remove from oven, pour honey mixture over the top of the meatballs, and swirl to coat. Cook until liquid is reduced and meatballs are coated.
  3. I do not have an ovenproof skillet, so I transferred mine to an 8x8 pan before placing in the oven. I kept my skillet warm, and then transferred the meatballs back to the skillet for glazing after removing from the oven.
  4. Serve with additional honey for dipping, if desired.
