Description

These chicken meatballs with apples and sage are served over fresh cranberry sauce and taste just like Thanksgiving in a bite, hence the name. They are the perfect prelude to Turkey Day! They’re great to serve guests over this weekend or the night before Thanksgiving. On the other hand, if you want to bypass all of the fuss, you could try serving these meatballs to your Thanksgiving guests.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE MEATBALLS:
  • 1 pound Ground Chicken
  • 2 whole Apples, Cored And Finely Diced
  • ½ whole White Onion, Diced
  • 5 leaves Sage
  • 1 whole Egg
  • ½ cups Applesauce
  • 1 cup Italian Breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • FOR THE CRANBERRY SAUCE:
  • 3 cups Fresh Cranberries
  • 1 cup Water
  • ¾ cups Sugar

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350ºF.

In a large bowl, thoroughly combine all of the meatball ingredients, form into your preferred size meatballs, and line them up on a rimmed baking sheet.

Place in oven and cook uncovered for 40 minutes, until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the meatballs are golden brown.

While the meatballs are baking, prepare the cranberry sauce. Place the cranberries, water, and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Using a whisk, combine ingredients.

Bring to a boil and whisk again. Continue to cook for an additional 10 minutes until the cranberries have burst and the sauce is formed. Remove from heat.

To plate, place desired amount of cranberry sauce on the plate and top with meatballs.
