  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef or turkey
  • 2 tablespoons jerk seasoning
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 can (14 ounces) coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons curry powder
  • 1 medium onion, diced

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef or turkey with jerk seasoning, breadcrumbs, and the egg. Mix until well combined and form into meatballs about 1 inch in diameter.

  5. Step 5: Return the meatballs to the skillet, cover, and let them simmer in the coconut curry sauce for about 15 minutes until cooked through and heated thoroughly.
  6. Step 6: Serve hot over rice or with naan bread, garnished with fresh cilantro if desired. Enjoy your Jerk Meatballs in Coconut Curry Sauce!

Notes

  • For optimal freshness, store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
  • When reheating, gently warm the meatballs and sauce on the stovetop over low heat to maintain their texture and flavor, adding a splash of coconut milk if needed to loosen the sauce.
  • Serve your jerk meatballs over fluffy rice or alongside warm naan bread, and don’t forget to sprinkle fresh cilantro on top for a vibrant touch!
  • For an extra flavor boost, consider adding some chopped bell peppers or spinach to the curry sauce while it simmers; they'll add both color and nutrition to your dish.
