- Hey everyone, it's Natasha of NatashasKitchen.com

and I have a really good dinner idea for you.

It's chicken meatballs that are juicy, tender, plump

in a fantastic cream sauce.

This recipe is so easy and it's perfect

for a busy weeknight.

We start with the meatballs and you basically

just put all the ingredients into a bowl

and stir it together.

So I've got one pound of ground chicken

and I'm using ground chicken thighs.

Add one cup of cooked white rice,

along with one large egg.

Half of a medium grated onion,

and I grate it right into the bowl

to save myself some dishes.

Then add one pressed garlic clove

and season it with half a teaspoon of salt

and a quarter teaspoon of pepper.

After you've mixed it all up,

we're gonna make the meatballs,

and I use an ice cream scoop to keep my hands clean.

Dredge your meatballs in flour,

then pat them into about one to one and a half inch balls,

dusting off the excess flour.

Then put them on a lightly floured surface.

Heat a large pan over a medium heat

and add a couple of tablespoons of oil.

Once the oil is hot, transfer the meatballs

into the skillet.

Saute uncovered for four minutes.

Flip your meatballs over, then cover and cook

another three minutes.

They're done when they're cooked through

and golden brown on all sides.

Transfer your meatballs to a separate plate

and in the same pan, no need to wash it,

melt two tablespoons of butter.

Sprinkle the top with two tablespoons of flour

and continue whisking until it's golden.

It takes about a minute.

Now stir in two cups of low sodium chicken broth

and continue whisking until it starts to thicken.

Finish off the sauce with a quarter cup of sour cream,

and you can also use heavy cream

if you don't have sour cream,

and whisk until smooth.

Season the sauce to taste.

I add in half a teaspoon of paprika,

half a teaspoon of salt and a pinch of black pepper.

Let the sauce simmer for a bit,

until it's thick enough to lightly coat a meatball.

Return the meatballs back to the pan

and then turn them to coat them in that yummy sauce.

They're ready to serve just as soon

as they're warmed through.

Alright, now the taste test,

and you know, these are so good over mashed potatoes

or noodles,

but I can't wait.

Still hot, but I'm gonna eat one.

Yum yum.

And of course, some extra sauce.

Okay, here we go.

Looks juicy.

They're so tender and absolutely delicious.

That sauce has so much flavor in it.
