Spicy Spanish Albondigas (Meatballs)

These little meatballs have a great kick and so much more flavor than traditional meatballs. Serve with additional Tabasco for sprinkling, and some very cold beer! When we were in Spain, San Miguel was the local favorite beer, but Dos Equis would be just as good!

SERVES 8 -12 , 26 -30 meatballs (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Combine hamburger and chorizo in a large bowl. Add all other ingredients, but do not over-work the meat.
  2. 2
    Form into small, bite-sized balls and fry in hot oil until brown on all sides and done through.
  3. 3
    *Note: These can also be baked at 400 F for about 18 - 20 minutes.

Yum! These are so simple and so good. I cut the recipe in half and froze the rest for another time. Thanks TinyBubbles for a great new treat. Made for ZWT5 2009 Family Picks.
