Сhicken piccata meatballs

Очень вкусные котлетки, вот только длинная паста к ним не подходит. Надо брать орзо со шпинатом и в конце чуть потушить их с котлетами в соусе.

500 g (1lb) ground chicken / chicken mince
1 egg
¾ cup breadcrumbs (panko/gluten-free/fresh)
¼ cup Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp chopped parsley
½ tsp dried oregano
½ tsp dried thyme
1 tsp lemon zest
½ tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper

For the sauce

1 tbsp butter
2 garlic cloves crushed
1 cup chicken stock (alternatively ½ cup white white wine + ½ cup stock)
2 tbsp capers
1 tbsp parsley
1-2 tsp lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

To make the meatballs, combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl. With a wooden spoon, mix well.
With wet hands, form meatballs the size of golf balls.
Heat a large pan or skillet over high heat and add a few tablespoons of olive oil. Cook the meatballs until golden brown on all sides. Remove and set aside.
To make the sauce, melt the butter in the pan and add the garlic. Cook for 30 seconds.
Add the stock (and wine, if using), capers, parsley and lemon juice. Allow to come to a simmer.
Add the meatballs and cook for another 7-10 minutes, coating the meatballs in the sauce, until the meatballs are cooked through.
Season to taste and serve.
