I LOVED this recipe but my husband would disagree.... I would be correct though so ignore him. It came from my most recent Food & Wine, although I modified it based on what I had {I had never even heard of some of the ingredients WTH is a YUZU?}, as well as "fixed" what I perceived as a flaw, they would not form into cohesive "balls".... Panko did the trick! I'm thinkin' pretty healthy and trust me, a lot of YUM!
HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED:
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup raw sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons mirin {available at Publix}
6 boneless chicken breasts coarsely diced
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 medium onion, minced
1/4 cup Panko Bread crumbs
Finely grated zest of 1 orange
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
NOTE: If using wooden skewers, soak them in cold water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup raw sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons mirin {available at Publix}
6 boneless chicken breasts coarsely diced
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 medium onion, minced
1/4 cup Panko Bread crumbs
Finely grated zest of 1 orange
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
NOTE: If using wooden skewers, soak them in cold water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- In a saucepan, combine the wine, soy sauce, sugar and 1/4 cup of the mirin; boil until reduced to 3/4 cup, 3 minutes. Let cool.
- Preheat the oven to 375°. In a bowl, combine the chicken [really dice the heck out of it], salt, onion, zest, Panko and the remaining 2 tablespoons of mirin. Spray your rimmed baking sheet with non-stick spray. Form the chicken mixture into 24 meatballs. Brush the meatballs with the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil and arrange them on the baking sheet. Bake for about 6 minutes, until the meatballs are barely cooked through.
- Heat your grill on high. Thread the meatballs onto 8 bamboo skewers and grill over moderately high heat, turning, until lightly charred, about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and brush the meatballs with the sauce. Grill, turning and brushing, until glazed, 30 seconds longer.
- Serve with the remaining sauce and some sauteed veggies or a light salad.
Looks delish! I will have to try... Or just come over for din!
