List of Ingredients
Meatballs:
3/4 lb. lean (at least 80%) ground beef
3/4 lb. ground pork (I used ground hot Italian sausage and I highly recommend doing this)
1/3 cup plain bread crumbs
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
1/3 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 egg, slightly beaten
Sauce:
1 cup red or amber hot jalapeno jelly
2/3 cup apple juice
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon garlic powderRecipe
Heat oven to 375 cegrees. Line 15x15x1-inch pan with foil; grease foil (I just used non-stick foil.). In large bowl, mix all meatball ingredients until well blended. Shape into 1-1/4 inch meatballs. Place in pan.
Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until browned and thoroughly cooked in center.
In large saucepan, mix all sauce ingredients. Cook over medium heat 2 to 3 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly.
Add meatballs to sauce; stir to coat. Cook over medium-low heat 5 to 7 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring occasionally.
18 servings (2 meatballs each)
