Ingredients
1 lb (450 g) ground chicken or lean ground beef
1 tbsp water
1⁄4 cup light sour cream
1 tbsp Dijon-style mustard
Toppings (optional): Better Than Bacon Topper
Preparation
- In large bowl, using a fork, combine ground meat, seasoning, and water. Form into 16 meatballs (about a scant 2 tbsp each).
- Arrange in a single layer in Multipurpose Steamer (it’s OK if they touch). Cover and microwave on high, for 4 min or until cooked. Uncover; let sit about 1 min before serving.
- Meanwhile, prepare sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream and mustard.
- When meatballs are cooked, carefully drain off liquid from bottom of steamer, reserving 2 tbsp juices. Stir into sauce in bowl. Pour one quarter over meatballs (in steamer); gently stir to coat.
- Serve meatballs with remaining sauce for dipping. Shake on topper, if using.
