As part of Foodbuzz Tastemaker Program, I have received several turkey products from Shady Brook Farms including turkey meatballs, bacon, and turkey breast roast. This weekend was pretty busy and I didn't really have that much time to spend in the kitchen, so turkey meatballs that are pre-cooked already were a great quick family meal solution. I served the meatballs in a delicious and flavorful roasted kumato tomato broth (read more about kumato tomato here).
Ingredients:
8 kumato tomatoes (small to medium size)
4 cloves garlic, unpeeled
1-2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon agave syrup
1/2 cup chicken stock
Salt, pepper to taste
Shady Brook Farms Italian Style Turkey Meatballs
Spaghetti, cooked
Directions:
Pre-heat the oven to 400°F. Cut tomatoes in half and arrange on a baking rack. Brush lightly with olive oil. Place garlic cloves on the same rack and drizzle with additional olive oil. Roast for about 20 minutes.
Peel garlic and tomatoes. Blend well with agave syrup and chicken stock and strain. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Place kumato tomatoes in a pot and bring to boil. Place the turkey meatballs in the broth and simmer for 15 minutes.
To serve: Arrange a handful spaghetti in a circle around the edges of a bowl. Place meatballs in the center and pour the broth all over.
