I've been fighting a sinus cold for awhile. I'm slowly getting over it but I wanted to give it a little kick to get it completely out of my system and what better way then with some spicy food. I lucked out and found a cup of homemade enchilada sauce that I had frozen so that part was easy, kind of like my recipe for Mexican rice is also, for the meatballs to rest on.
Enchilada Meatballs
1# extra lean ground beef
1/2 cup Panko bread crumbs
1/4 cup milk
1 large egg
1/4 cup onions, minced
1/2 tbsp chili powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl. I've found that hand mixing works the best. Shape into meatballs and place in a heated frying pan with 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil. Cook completely. Pour in 1 cup of enchilada sauce and turn the meatballs frequently so they absorb some of the flavor. I melted cheese on mine before serving.
