WEANING RECIPE: CHICKEN MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Blitz the celery, carrot, chicken and chives in a food processor until finely chopped. You may need to use a spatula to scrape the sides of the bowl a few times.
• Shape into small meatballs. If freezing, space out on a tray and put in the freezer. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer bag and take them out when needed. Defrost thoroughly in the fridge before cooking.
• To cook, put on a baking tray lined with greased foil and bake for 10 mins or until browned and cooked through.
• Served with boiled rice and steamed broccoli.

BUFFALO CHICKEN MEATBALLS

Steps:

• For the meatballs: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper covered with cooking spray.
• Combine the chicken, breadcrumbs, celery, hot sauce, egg, scallion, garlic and some salt and pepper in a bowl. Gently mix until well combined, being careful not to overmix. Using a tablespoon measure, remove scoops of the mixture, roll into balls and put onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake until cooked through and browned, about 15 minutes.
• For the sauce. Meanwhile, in a saute pan over medium-low heat, melt the butter with the hot sauce, stirring to combine. Once the meatballs are cooked, add to the sauce and toss to coat well.
• Transfer the meatballs to a platter. Sprinkle over the gorgonzola and celery leaves. Serve with the celery stalks and leaves on the side, as well as some toothpicks to skewer the meatballs as they are devoured.

CRISPY CHICKEN MEATBALLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the Parmesan, parsley, milk, salt, oregano, pepper flakes, 1/4 cup breadcrumbs and 1 egg. Add the chicken and gently stir to combine, being careful not to overwork the meat. Shape the meat mixture into bite-size balls and press a cube of mozzarella in the middle of each, sealing it with the meat around it.
• Set up a standard breading station: put the flour in one shallow bowl, the remaining 1 cup of breadcrumbs in a separate bowl and the remaining 2 eggs in another separate bowl. Roll each meatball in the flour, then the egg wash, then the breadcrumbs.
• Fill a medium Dutch oven a third of the way with vegetable oil and place over medium heat. Bring the oil to 350 degrees F using a deep-fry thermometer,
• Drop in the meatballs a few at a time so as to not lower the temperature, and fry until deep golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and season with a pinch of salt. Continue with the remaining meatballs. Serve warm with marinara for dipping if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
