Cilantro Meatballs with Chipotle Dipping Sauce

My husband calls these Gourmet Meatballs..I laugh because they are super easy! I love to serve these with Rice to for a dinner. These are enough for both me and my husband and then him to have some for lunch the next day.

1 lb. ground beef
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 jalapeño pepper, minced (I use 1 small can of Diced Green Chiles)
1 egg
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
3 cloves garlic, minced, divided
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup Real Mayo Mayonnaise
1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce


PREHEAT oven to 375°F. Mix meat, cilantro, jalapeno pepper (or Chiles), egg, bread crumbs, 2/3 of the garlic and salt. Shape into 20 meatballs, each about 1 inch in diameter.


PLACE in 15x10x1-inch baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray.


BAKE 20 minutes or until meatballs are cooked through. Meanwhile, place mayo, remaining garlic and chipotle pepper in blender container; cover. Blend until smooth. Serve with meatballs.
