Firecracker Chicken Meatballs with Cilantro Coconut Pineapple Rice

I would make often if not for disliking making meatballs. Can easily substitute or omit ingredients with what you have on hand. I does have a spiciness to it but balanced. It's more effort than I prefer to spend on dinner but definitely worth it! My teenage girls would eat it daily! I think I could too!

Delicious. The meatball recipe was easy, with minimal fuss, and cooked up very quickly with the rice. Since I used tinned pineapple, I added a few extras to garnish, and it was very tasty. The meatballs are only slightly spicy, add more hot sauce if you prefer a touch more zing, or chop the jalapeño with the seeds included. This makes four portions, though I only got 14 ice cream scoop sized meatballs with it. It could have use a little more breadcrumbs to help it not be such a wet meat mixture, too. It’s enough, however, for four light adult meals, but may require a side if it’s for four hungry adults!

Yummy! I tried with 1 cup of rice but will go back to original quantity called..for as I want it more saucy.

This dish was really easy to make, and didn't have a whole lot of clean up. The price of this recipe was not bad at all, everything was fresh and delicious. My boyfriend and I like a little more heat so we added a little more Cholula (hot sauce). Overall this dish was great, and we will be making it again.

AMAZING FLAVOR!!! My husband and I loved this recipe! The rice alone was yummy!! Definitely going in the favorites list! 🤤 As per prior notes, use 1 cup rice. I also added a squeeze of lime juice at the end.

I used 13 oz of Rosina's homes style frozen meatballs so I can't say how good the meatballs are, but this dish is divine! I tried making it without the meatballs once but it's not good without them. Also, canned pineapple is better than frozen. Add Sriracha on top if you want some fire. 10/10

I add extra jalapeños and Sriracha. Also increase rice qty and associated ingredients. I forgot to say that I use coconut panko in lieu of plain panko.

Really good. Rice just needs cooked longer.

Loved the coconut rice with it, adjust spice to your taste, I made both spicy and non spicy and both were great

Decent, but not a go to

Tasted great but as mentioned, it needs more rice. With 3/4 cup, it was really soupy and I had to cook longer... Then it was mushy rice. I think 1c rice would work. We didn't think it was super firecracker as written. Don't expect to be lit on fire.

Would have put in 1 cup rice minimum
