Chicken Balls

Chicken Balls

1 lb. lean ground chicken
1/3 cup shredded organic zucchini
1/2 cup steel cut oats
1/4 cup fine whole wheat bread crumbs
1/4 cup diced organic red onion
1/3 cup diced, organic, roasted red pepper
1/4 cup cream of mushroom soup
1 large egg
salt and pepper to taste

Mix all ingredients in large bowl with wooden spoon.  Create medium sized ball using spoon and hands.  Brown the chicken balls on three or four sides on medium heat in a frying pan on medium heat, turning every couple of minutes, until browned on at least three sides.  Place balls on a cookie sheet covered in aluminum foil and once all the balls are browned, place cookie sheet in a 375 Farenheit oven for ten minutes.

Serve in a basil pesto sauce with roasted garlic fettucini or with the pasta of your choice.  Would work well with an alfredo sauce as well. 

Could be over-powered by a tomato sauce as the chicken is rather light in flavor.

Double thick pork chops, stuffed with wild rice, celery, onions, broccoli, plus apple and dried cranberry poached in Terremana tequila. Double baked potatoes with smoked aged cheddar and roasted garlic. I sliced 3/4 of the way through. Mixed the cooked wild rice with the sautéed diced onion, celery and broccoli florets. Then added the poached apple slices and cranberry. Let it cool a bit first. Then 3 large spoonful of stuffing spread in the sliced chop. Gently squeezed the edge together and held it with 3 toothpicks. Once they were cooked at 375 for 30 minutes, then broiled on high for 3 minutes for browning, I removed the toothpicks before plating. Baked the russet potatoes, scooped out the insides. Mixed that with 2 tablespoons of butter, shredded double smoked aged cheddar, topped with Beimister cheese.
