Spicy Orange Bison Balls

By: Chef John

"This recipe is inspired by the retro classic cocktail meatballs in grape jelly. I took that idea, along with my love of spicy orange beef, and came up with this combination."

Original Recipe Yield 4 servings

Ingredients

1 pound ground bison
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
1 egg, beaten
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons Asian chile pepper sauce
1/2 cup orange marmalade
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
3 cups water

Directions

Mix the bison, garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl until evenly combined; divide the mixture into 24 portions and roll into balls.
Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook the meatballs until nicely browned on all sides, 7 to 10 minutes.
Add the chili sauce, orange marmalade, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and water to the skillet. Bring the mixture to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until the sauce thickens, about 1 hour.
