Healthy Sweet and Sour Chicken Meatball Recipe
Here is a great healthy alternative to take away sweet and sour chicken balls. I've used Musclefood Lean Chicken Meatballs and an adapted Slimming World Sweet and Sour Sauce recipe to make a healthy Sweet and Sour Chicken Meatball dish that is absolutely delicious and very filling
Ingredients
- 1 Pack of Musclefood Lean Chicken Meatballs or 12 Chicken meatballs

- 300 g fresh egg noodles

Instructions
- Using low fat cooking spray fry the meatballs and peppers over a medium heat until cooked through (around 10 - 15 minutes)
- Mix together the stock, white wine vinegar, soy, garlic, tomato puree and some of the pineapple juice from the tin (how much depends on how sweet you want your sauce, we used around 1/2 the juice from the tin)
- Mix the corn flour with 2tbsp of water then add to the sauce to help thicken when cooking
- Pour the sauce into the pan with your meatballs and peppers and reduce to a simmer
- Cook your noodles according to instructions
- After dish has simmered for about 5 mins add your noddles and pineapple chunks and mix well
- Heat for 2-3 minutes more then serve and enjoy
