recipe

  • Step 1
    If frozen, let the meatballs defrost on the counter for 20-30 mins. Wash the bell pepper & remove the seeds. Cut the pepper into 1-inch pieces. Add to a mixing bowl.
  • Step 2
    Peel & cut the red onion into 1-inch pieces. Add to the peppers.
  • Step 3
    Add the meatballs to the mixing bowl with the veggies. Drizzle everything with olive oil, then season with salt, pepper & oregano. Mix well.
  • Step 4
    Thread the meatballs & veggie pieces onto skewers, leaving a few inches on the bottom of each skewer.
  • Step 5
    Heat a grill pan (or cast-iron skillet) over medium-high heat. Brush the grooves with oil. Grill the skewers for 10-12 mins, turning occasionally as they cook, until the veggies are tender & the meatballs are warmed through. Remove from the heat.
  • Step 6
    Heat the rice according to package instructions.
  • Step 7
    Serve the meatball & veggie skewers over the yellow rice. Finish with a dollop of tzatziki, a sprinkle of crumbled feta & a few cracks of pepper. Enjoy!
