Ingredients
  

  • 350 g 12 oz minced chicken
  • 75 g ½ cup finely chopped onion
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • ½ tsp dried rosemary
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • 50 g ¾ cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 tbsp olive oil for frying
  • 175 ml ¾ cup chicken stock
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp English mustard
  • 150 g ½ cup crème fraîche
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Meatballs: In a large bowl, combine the minced chicken, chopped onion, garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, and Panko breadcrumbs.
  • Shape the Meatballs: Form the mixture into small, even-sized meatballs, roughly the size of a golf ball (you should get around 12-15 meatballs).
  • Cook the Meatballs: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs in batches, ensuring you don’t overcrowd the pan. Fry them for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and fully cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  • Make the Creamy Sauce: In the same skillet, add the chicken stock, honey, and mustard, stirring to combine. Let the mixture simmer for 3 minutes to reduce slightly. Then, stir in the crème fraîche and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and becomes creamy.
  • Finish the Dish: Return the cooked meatballs to the skillet, making sure they are coated in the creamy honey mustard sauce.
  • Serve: Garnish the meatballs with plenty of fresh parsley and serve hot over pasta, rice, or with crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
