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
