YOU Magazine Fashion Beauty Celebrity Health Life Relationships Horoscopes Food Interiors Travel Home Food Phil Vickery’ s chicken meatballs with garlic herbs and paprika By You Magazine - May 31, 2020 Yes, I do dry-fry the meatballs – you will find a certain amount of moisture is released from them as they cook, which helps to colour them. I don’t ever fry paprika as it burns and tastes awful, so you should always add it to a mix or liquid. Be careful with the amount you use, though – smoked paprika is very pungent and can overpower the other ingredients. Kate Whitaker SERVES 4 PREPARATION TIME 25 MINUTES COOKING TIME 15 MINUTES 1 tsp rapeseed oil 2 small onions, very finely chopped 1 heaped tbsp fresh ginger, very finely chopped 1 garlic clove, crushed 200g chicken breast mince (skinless) 2 tbsp chopped parsley 2 tbsp chopped basil 2 tbsp chopped chives 1 level tbsp smoked paprika 1 tsp reduced-salt soy sauce freshly ground black pepper 1. Heat the oil in a nonstick frying pan, then add the onions, ginger and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes to reduce some of their rawness then set aside to cool. 2. Place the mince in a bowl and break it up with a spatula. Next add the herbs, paprika and cooled onion mix. Mix well then season with the soy sauce and pepper, then mix thoroughly again. 3. Roll into roughly 2.5cm balls, then chill really well for 3-4 minutes. 4. Place a nonstick wok or frying pan over a medium heat. 5. Add the chicken meatballs and gently dry-fry for 8-10 minutes, rolling them around the pan to colour on all sides. Serve. COOK’S TIP Serve these delicious chicken meatballs with some steamed asparagus, pak choi or some lightly roasted cauliflower.
