Dietary meatballs from minced chicken in the oven with gravy

Feel free to eat meatballs, even if you're on a diet! When you need to get in shape, you look for low-calorie recipes, but... I have a big family, I want it to be delicious and everyone will like it! These meatballs are just what you need! Thanks to the fact that we don’t fry anything and add vegetables to the minced meat, they turn out to be more dietary, the spices add piquancy and promote better digestion, and the tomato sauce adds juiciness and color!

I decided to cook dietary meatballs from minced chicken in the oven with gravy for dinner for the whole family. I prepared it exclusively according to the recipe, without making any changes. Everything is described very clearly. The recipe is quite simple. I've never made meatballs in tomato juice before. I used homemade tomato juice, added bay leaves and peppercorns, as the author advises. I haven’t tried adding vegetables to meatballs before, but in vain. Minced meat with rice and vegetables makes more satisfying and tasty meatballs. Minced chicken makes absolutely no-fat meatballs and it’s great. They are not fried, but baked, which is much healthier! I made small balls and baked them for 25 minutes at 170 degrees. The results were very tender, juicy and tasty meatballs. Served with boiled buckwheat and topped with gravy. A wonderful dietary option for both adults and children. Thank you!
