Sweet and Spicy Meatballs

Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking sheet and rack

1/2 pound ground beef

1/2 pound ground pork

One 4-ounce can diced hot jalapeños, drained

1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs

1 teaspoon granulated garlic

1 large egg

1 small onion, finely chopped

One 10-ounce jar pepper jelly, preferably Tabasco Mild Jalapeño Pepper Jelly

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1/2 cup bloody mary mix

1/4 cup pomegranate juice

2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar

1/4 cup pomegranate seeds

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Fit a baking sheet with a wire rack and lightly spray with cooking spray.
  2. Place the ground beef and pork in a large bowl. Add the diced jalapeños, breadcrumbs, granulated garlic, egg, onion, 1 tablespoon pepper jelly and some salt and pepper and gently fold this mixture together.
  3. Using a small scoop, roll a tablespoon of the meat mixture into a ball. Place on the prepared wire rack and repeat until all of the meat has been shaped into balls. Roast the meatballs until slightly browned, about 25 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, make the glaze. Combine the bloody mary mix, pomegranate juice, light brown sugar and remaining pepper jelly (about 3/4 cup) in a small saucepot. Boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the jelly has dissolved and the sauce has reduced slightly, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and pour into a large mixing bowl to cool. (The glaze will thicken as it cools.)
  5. Transfer the hot meatballs to the large bowl with the glaze and gently toss until evenly coated. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with the pomegranate seeds.

I'm famished...only had a banana so far.

I'm thinking something with tuna for dinner...
I had that thought yesterday and squashed it. Was too hungry to wait for the eggs to boil. I hope you have eaten something by now. I hate to be starving and had what I wanted yesterday,today, an egg and ham sandwich, double but the yolks weren't runny, sigh.

You know what's funny, I thought about putting some boiled eggs on it, but was too impatient...

It turned out perfectly despite my haste!

Here is a good recipe I’m thinking of making Election night along with some hot and spicy meatballs to snack on.


Black Eyed Pea Chicken Chili

Ingredients




    • 1 pound Chicken tenders or boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/ 2-by-3- inch strips
    • Kosher salt
    • Freshly ground black pepper
    • 2 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
    • 1 Medium onion, diced (about 1 cup
    • 2 Garlic cloves, minced
    • 2 15-ounce cans Black eyed peas drained and rinsed
    • 1 cup Corn kernels, fresh or frozen and thawed
    • 1 4 ounce Can chopped green chiles
    • 2 teaspoons Ground cumin
    • 2 teaspoons Pure chile powder
    • 1/8 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
    • 3 cups Water, plus more if needed
    • 2 cups Grated Monterey Jack cheese
    • 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro

    • Directions

      1. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. In a large saucepan, heat the oil over high heat until shimmering but not smoking. Add the chicken pieces and cook, stirring, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Lower the heat to medium-high and add the onion and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the beans, corn, chiles, spices, and water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and simmer, uncovered, for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

      2. Add more water, ½ cup at a time, if the chili is too thick. When the chili is done, taste and add more salt and pepper if needed. Ladle the chili into bowls and top each serving with a spoonful of cheese and a sprinkling of cilantro.
But what if the election turns out to be not what you want it to be?:doh:

Boundaries? Did I miss something?
That reminds of something the old man said on the first back to the future movie. Something like "Boundaries? who has boundaries" as he flew off in that car.
