Calories per serving 215.

ingredients

1 teaspoon olive oil
1 red onion, chopped very finely
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 teaspoon dried oregano
450 g (1 lb) chicken mince
50 g (1 3/4 oz) fresh white breadcrumbs
1 egg
400 g can of chopped tomatoes
300 ml (10 fl oz) chicken stock
2 tablespoons tomato puree
3 tablespoons dry white wine
100 g (3 1/2 oz) button mushrooms, sliced
salt and freshly ground black pepper

method

1. Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan and add the onion and garlic with 1 tablespoon of water.

2. Cover and cook over a low heat for 5 minutes, until the onion has softened.

3. Place the oregano, chicken mince, breadcrumbs, egg and seasoning in a mixing bowl with the garlic and onion.

4. Mix thoroughly and then roll the mixture into 20 small balls between the palms of your hands - wet your hands with cold water to prevent the mixture sticking to you.

5. Place the remaining ingredients in a medium saucepan. Stir well and bring to the boil.

6. Add the chicken meatballs and seasoning, reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 40 minutes, stirring from time to time.
