How to make chicken mitbols with cheese in tomato sauce? First of all, you need to take the necessary products

Cut chicken fillet in arbitrary pieces

Scroll with 1-2 garlic cloves on a meat grinder

I scroll through the mince on my own and practically never buy, because this is a matter for a couple of minutes and we always know what it is from)

Minced Chicken Salt

We pepper

Add basil

Now breadcrumbs

Then sour cream

Drive in the egg

Now we mix the mince well with our hands, you can even beat it slightly against the table so that it will later sculpt better, then let the mince lie in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes

Take the mince out of the fridge and take just over half a tablespoon

We make a deepening in mince

We put a ball of mozzarella in it

We collect the mince into a ball, holding the edges together

Getting Our Future Mitball

From these ingredients I got 21 balls

Immediately prepare the ingredients for the sauce - finely cut the onions

Crush garlic with the flat side of a knife and grind

Now we fry mitbols in heated vegetable oil over medium heat, they fry quite quickly, minutes 4-5 on each side

Turn and fry mitbols on the other side, shake the pan periodically (but not much of course) so that mitbols are better roasted

Put fried mitbols in a plate

And in the oil that remains after mitballs, fry onions with garlic for 2-3 minutes until soft

Add some Provence herbs or other spices to taste

Italians would add tomatoes in their own juice at this stage, but I'll add homemade tomato juice from tomatoes sprouted on my bed

Simmer for about 5 minutes over a medium heat to allow extra liquid to evaporate

Return mitbols to the pan

Warm up for 4-5 minutes under the lid

Pour aromatic sauce over mitbola
