Hey,

what i like about this recipe is that you use fresh garlic instead of the powdered stuff....

and using your hands is still the best kitchen tool...

Chipotle Spicy Meatballs....yum yum!

That looked great. My wife is not able to take very much hotness at all. How picante would you say this is?

[freitasex]

To me it is very mild, just a touch of spice really.

Normally I would add 2 chipotles and 2 tablespoons chipotle gravy sauce, but for YouTube I made the sauce mild.

Never measure my friend. :-)

When I make meatballs for albondigas I add rice in the mix.

I never thought about putting them in the oven... for albondigas I don't fry them at all, they just cook in the broth.
