MainRecipesKids | Meatballs with Peppers and Pineapple

   Meatballs with Peppers and Pineapple submitted by Mom Johnson
Description
Comfort-food, fresh ingredients, chilly night......yum!

Directions
Combine ground beef, diced onion, egg, salt, pepper, breadcrumbs and crushed red pepper. Mix with hands until combined. Roll meat mixture into small balls and place on a cookie sheet. Freeze in the pan for about 15-2 minutes to firm. Mix together the beef stock, soy sauce, sherry (or vinegar), sugar and cornstarch.

Heat canola oil over medium-high heat. Roll the meatballs in flour, then fry in two batches until nice and brown, about 2 minutes per batch. Remove meatballs and set aside on a separate plate.

Pour off the oil from the pan and return pan to medium-high heat. When the pan is hot again, put in the chopped green peppers and cook for one minute. Add the pineapple to the pan and cook for one minute, stirring gently. Pour in the stock/soy sauce mixture, then add the meatballs. Stir gently to combine and allow to cook and bubble for a few minutes, or until sauce is thickened. Add the salt and any additional crushed red pepper to taste. Serve over cooked brown or white rice.
