HEALTHY SPINACH MEATBALLS WITH SPICY SRIRACHA MARINARA



Healthy Spinach Meatballs With Spicy Sriracha Marinara image

Found on the blog "One Couple's Kitchen." This is SPICY. So if you don't do well with heat, I would skip this one, or just leave out the sriracha. The meatballs are a healthy combo of turkey and pork with the added benefit of spinach. Feel free to use your own sauce, or use the marinara with normal spaghetti. I served over spaghetti squash to make it even healthier! Options are endless!

Time 45m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 serrano chile pepper, halved lengthwise and seeded
½ pound rib-eye steak, partially frozen
1 egg
¼ cup panko bread crumbs
1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 lime, zested
1 tablespoon light olive oil
⅓ (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
½ bunch cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place serrano peppers with cut sides down onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has charred, 5 to 8 minutes. Immediately put peppers in a heatproof bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and let sit until cool enough to handle, 5 to 10 minutes. Scrape the skins off with your fingers, core and seed chile peppers. Dice peppers.
  • Cut rib-eye steak into thin slices. Chop slices finely. Transfer to a bowl. Add serrano peppers, egg, panko, sriracha sauce, ginger, salt, pepper, and lime zest. Wet your hands and form mixture into ping pong-sized balls.
  • Coat a saute pan with olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add meatballs and sear both sides evenly, about 4 minutes. Pour in beer and soy sauce. Stir in peanut butter and reduce heat; simmer sauce until thickened, 5 to 10 minutes. Garnish with cilantro.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

Coarse salt
1 cup long-grain white rice
1 carrot, shredded
3/4 cup fresh breadcrumbs
1 1/2 pounds ground dark-meat turkey or ground pork
3 scallions, white and green parts separated and thinly sliced
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
4 teaspoons fish sauce
4 teaspoons hot-pepper sauce (preferably Sriracha)
4 teaspoons sugar
1 large garlic clove, minced
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
Lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a medium saucepan, bring 1 1/2 cups salted water to a boil. Add rice, stir, and return to a boil. Cover, reduce to a simmer, and cook until rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and top with carrot. Let stand, covered, 5 minutes, then stir in carrot and fluff rice with a fork.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine breadcrumbs and 3 tablespoons water. Let stand 5 minutes. Add turkey, scallion whites, cilantro, fish sauce, hot-pepper sauce, sugar, garlic, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Gently mix to combine and form into 12 meatballs.
  • In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon oil over medium-high. In batches, brown meatballs on all sides, 10 minutes total (add up to 1 teaspoon oil as needed). Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and bake until cooked through, 10 minutes. Serve meatballs with rice, scallion greens, and lime wedges.
