saltnpepperhereCHICKEN MEATBALLS WITH ROASTED TOMATO AND PEPPER ORZO is the comfort meal that satisfies on a gloomy Autumn day 🍂🍅☺️ Thanks to @Ontario Dairy 2025 Milk Calendar for inspiring this fam-approved recipe that’s going to be on repeat around here. Recipe notes and ingredients below. Full recipe is linked in bio! #ad RECIPE NOTES: ⊹ fresh Ontario ricotta is the secret weapon for these tender meatballs! ⊹ whether you have the last tomatoes and peppers to use up or you’re making this during the off-season, roasting them deepens their flavour and brings life to them. ⊹ the cooking technique for the orzo is somewhat similar to risotto except it takes less than half the time (about 10 minutes). Gotta love that! INGREDIENTS: For the Chicken Meatballs: 1 lb ground chicken ½ C Ontario ricotta cheese ½ C fresh parsley, finely chopped ½ C grated Ontario parmesan cheese 2 garlic cloves ½ tsp kosher salt, more to taste ¼ tsp onion powder Black pepper or white pepper, to taste Oil for cooking For the Roasted Tomato Pepper Orzo: ¾ lb tomatoes 1 red bell pepper 4 garlic cloves, separated 3 sprigs of fresh thyme 1 tbsp oil 1 tbsp Ontario butter ½ small white onion, small diced ½ tsp dried chili pepper flakes 1 lb uncooked orzo 3½ C chicken broth or enough to top up roasted tomato/pepper puree from above to a total of 5½ cups Salt and pepper to taste For serving: ¼ C grated Ontario parmesan cheese ¼ C chopped fresh parsley Full recipe with instructions linked in bio. #EverybodyMilk #OntarioDairy #MilkCalendar2025
