Pre-heat oven to 325° F.
Mix thoroughly:
| 2 | pounds lean ground beef or turkey |
|---|---|
| 1 | cup dried bread crumbs |
| 2 | cloves minced garlic |
| 4 | tablespoons finely chopped parsley |
| 2 | beaten eggs |
| 1 | teaspoon salt |
| 1/2 | teaspoon pepper |
Shape into small to medium size meat balls and place in a shallow baking pan and cook at 325 until they are dark brown (about half an hour).
While these are cooking prepare the sauce by mixing in a sauce pan or blender:
| 1 | cup pineapple juice |
|---|---|
| or 1 | large can of unsweetened pineapple, pureed |
| 1/2 | cup brown sugar |
| 4 | tablespoons soy sauce |
| 2 | tablespoons peanut oil |
| 1 1/2 | teaspoons ground ginger |
| 1/2 | teaspoon salt |
| 2 | cloves minced garlic |
Simmer sauce slowly and add meatballs when they are finished cooking. The longer you simmer the meatballs the better the taste!
