Miami is such a cosmopolitan city that almost every culture’s food is well represented here. A Swedish friend served me this dish at her South Beach apartment once, and I couldn’t help to make it a family tradition. I revised her meatball recipe and created this original fusion. Serve with toothpicks sitting in sauce.
Recipe Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground turkey
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup cornmeal (such as PAN®)
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 egg
- 1 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
- 2 (12 fluid ounce) cans or bottles Mexican beers
- 1 (12 ounce) bottle chili sauce
- ½ cup pickle relish
- ¼ cup tequila
Cooking Directions
- 1 Combine turkey, Parmesan cheese, cornmeal, Worcestershire sauce, egg, and jalapeno pepper together in a bowl; form into meatballs.
- 2 Mix beer, chili sauce, pickle relish, and tequila in a separate bowl until sauce is evenly combined. Transfer sauce to a saucepan and add meatballs.
- 3 Simmer meatballs in the sauce over medium-low heat until meatballs are cooked through, about 30 minutes.
