Cook Up Flavorful Albóndigas in Smoky Chipotle Salsa
Nothing says cold-weather comfort quite like albóndigas simmered in a smoky chipotle tomato sauce. The meatballs come together so quickly, bolstered by masa harina and rice (no egg!) and a blend of spices. The kick from the tomato sauce and the heartiness of the meatballs will warm you from the inside out. (If you like it hot, toss an extra chipotle.) Bonus: this dish freezes perfectly, so double it to make some for a friend in need or for your future self.

Hi Tammie! Great question—no need to cook the rice first! Just mix it into the meatball mixture. It will cook perfectly as the meatballs sear and simmer in the chipotle sauce.
Is the rice supposed to be cooked first or just rinsed raw rice?
