Beef And Rice Meatballs Food

ONE SKILLET BEEF MEATBALLS WITH RICE AND PEAS

Steps:

• Thaw the meatballs if they are frozen. I just stuck them in the microwave for a couple minutes. They don't have to be completely thaw, just enough that they will finish thawing and warm up while cooking the rice.
• Heat a high-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil.
• When the oil shimmers, add the garlic and saute 1 minute, until fragrant.
• Add the meatballs and cook for 2-3 minutes.
• Add the beef broth, rice, garlic powder, pepper and salt. Scrape up any browned bits.
• Stir and bring the heat up to high so that it comes to a boil.
• Reduce the heat to low to maintain a simmer. Cover with a lid.
• Continue to simmer with the lid on for 15-20 minutes, until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Stir at 15 minutes to make sure it isn't sticking.
• When the rice is cooked, remove from the heat and season to taste, adding more salt and pepper if you want.
• Stir in the peas. Add as much as looks good to you.
• Add the green onions and parsley, if using. Cover until the peas are warm, just a few minutes.
• This is great with a big green salad. I actually ate mine right on top of a bed of spinach. If you wanted you could stir fresh spinach into the meal and let it wilt while it's still on the stove.

BEEF AND RICE MEATBALLS

Steps:

• In a blender, mix the contents of the can of tomatoes, clove of garlic and water.
• Heat the oil over low heat in a pot. Add the tomato blend and serrano pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce to low heat.
• While the sauce cooks, mix the ground beef, onion, pepper, salt, egg, Worcestershire sauce, cooked rice and breadcrumbs to form a uniform mass. Grab some of the meat with your fingers, and use your hands to make a ball about 1-inch in diameter.
• Carefully set the meatball in the tomato sauce. Repeat, making meatballs until you've used all the meat. Add the chopped spinach to the sauce.
• Increase the temperature to bring the sauce back to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to medium-high so that the tomato sauce gently boils. Cook the meatballs for 25 minutes.
• Serve immediately with beans and tortillas.
