These little balls are delicious by themselves or served with mashed potatoes or a simple salad. You can flavour the meat mixture with whatever you like to suit your taste. I mince my own meat by you can just use pre brought chicken mince. Ingredients: 2 Chicken breasts (or a packet of pre brought chicken mince) 1/2 Cup breadcrumbs 1 small chopped onion (optional) 2 Tablespoons Italian herbs seasoning 1 Tablespoon liquid smoke (optional) 1 Chicken stock cube (optional) Salt and Pepper 1/2 Cup seasoned flour 2 Eggs beaten 1 Cup Panko Breadcrumbs 1/2 Cup Tomato Pasatta 2 slices Ham (optional) 1/2 Cup Cheese (I used cheddar) grated Method:
Pre heat the oven to 180'c. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Using a mincer mince the chicken breast using a course mix blade. Add breadcrumbs, onion, seasoning, liquid smoke and a crushed stock cube and mix till well combined. season with salt and pepper. Roll mixture into bite size balls ( I got 15 balls out of my mixture). Take one ball cover in seasoned flour and once fully covered transfer to the beaten egg mixture cover completely and transfer to breadcrumb's. once covered set aside. Repeat with all remaining balls. Place balls onto baking tray and bake in oven for 20mins or until golden and crispy and chicken is cooked. Once cooked remove from oven, place a piece of ham on top of each ball and a heaped teaspoon of tomato pasatta, top with cheese and place back in oven for 10mins or until cheese has melted. Serve hot or cold. Note: You can deep fry the balls instead of baking them just place them in the oven to melt the cheese.
