Chicken Meatballs in Tomato Sauce - Kycklingköttbullar i tomatsås

CHICKEN MEATBALLS IN TOMATO SAUCE
Kycklingköttbullar i tomatsås

Minced chicken flavored with sweet chili, shaped into meatballs that are first fried and then simmered in a delectable tomato sauce. Yes, I love tomato sauce!

Serves 4

1 lb minced chicken
1 small onion
1 garlic clove
0.2 cup sweet chili sauce
0.2 cup dried breadcrumbs
salt, pepper
oil for frying
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons honey or sugar
1 lb crushed tomatoes
0.4 cup water
a 6 inch piece of leek
5½ oz feta cheese


Peel and finely chop onion and garlic. Mix this with minced chicken, sweet chili sauce, breadcrumbs, salt and pepper. Shape into meatballs, as large as you want them. Heat up a frying pan with lots of oil and fry the meatballs until nicely colored all around. Add tomato paste and honey and continue frying for a couple of minutes.

Shred the leek and save some for decoration. Add crushed tomatoes, shredded leek and water to the pan. Simmer over medium heat for 25 to 30 minutes and flavor to taste with salt and pepper.

While the meatballs are cooking, boil your choice of pasta. Crumble the feta cheese over the meatballs and top with some shredded leek.

Serve with pasta and a salad.

Enjoy!
