Description

Ground chicken is leaner than other meats, but less fat doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice flavor. These meatballs are loaded with aromatics like scallions, ginger and garlic.

Ingredients

  • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 1-¼ pound Ground Chicken
  • 1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce
  • 2-½ teaspoons Fresh Ginger, Finely Grated
  • 4  Scallions, Thinly Sliced, Plus More For Serving
  • 2 Tablespoons Coconut Oil
  • 1 bunch Bok Choy, Chopped
  • ½ teaspoons Red Pepper Flakes (or More, Depending On Your Heat Level)
  • ½ teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • 1-½ cup Chicken Broth

Preparation

In a medium bowl, combine the garlic, chicken, soy sauce, ginger and scallions. (Note: Be careful not to over-mix.) Scoop it out by the tablespoonful and form mixture into 1” diameter meatballs. Set meatballs aside.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add meatballs in a single layer, but don’t crowd the pan. Cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown all over, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a clean plate.

Combine bok choy and red pepper flakes along with a pinch each of salt and pepper in the skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until the greens are crisp and tender, about 5 minutes. Add the meatballs and broth. Bring the broth to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until the meatballs are cooked through, about 5–8 minutes.

Serve sprinkled with more scallions.
