Curried Fowl Balls

A tasty entree or appetizer that gets high marks from adults and kids. Lots of different ways to serve them.

Ingredients

• 1 cup cooked rice
• 0.5 cup finely diced onion
• 0.5 cup mild curry powder
• 0.5 cup water
• 10 tortilla chips with a 'hint of lime', crushed, or as needed
• 0.25 cup vegetable oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon dried tarragon
• 2 pounds ground turkey
• 2 teaspoons butter, or as needed

Steps

1. Mix rice, onion, curry powder, water, tortilla chips, vegetable oil, garlic, salt, and tarragon together in a bowl; add turkey and mix until thoroughly combined. Form mixture into 1-inch balls.
2. Preheat oven to 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
3. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat; add butter. Put about 12 balls in the melted butter and press each ball into a 1/2-inch thick patty using the back of a spatula. Cook until no longer pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer cooked patties to an oven-safe plate and keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining balls, adding more butter as needed.
