Thai Chili Coconut Smashed Beef Patties
Thai Chili Coconut Smashed Beef Patties

with Zesty Rice, Roasted Green Beans & Peanuts

10 min
Difficulty: 1/3

If you take a meatball and smash it flat before cooking, a little kitchen magic happens: All those jagged, craggy edges that form get extra crisp and caramelized when roasting in the oven. Coat those patties with a sweet and spicy Thai chili coconut pan sauce and serve over zesty rice along with tender green beans. Finish with a scattering of roasted peanuts and squeezes of lime, and you’ve taken the humble meatball into fiercely delicious territory!

Preparation
1
PREP

  • Adjust rack to top position (middle and top positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

  • Peel and mince or grate ginger. Zest and quarter lime. Trim green beans if necessary.

2
COOK COCONUT RICE

  • In a small pot, combine ½ cup water, ¼ cup coconut milk (thoroughly shake in container before opening), 1 TBSP butter, ½ tsp sugar, and a big pinch of salt. (For 4 servings, use ½ cup coconut milk, 1 cup water, 2 TBSP butter, and 1 tsp sugar.)

  • Bring to a boil, then stir in rice and reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook until tender, 15-18 minutes.

  • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

3
FORM MEATBALLS

  • While rice cooks, in a large bowl, combine pork*, panko, ginger, salt (we used ¾ tsp; 1½ tsp for 4 servings), and pepper.

  • Form into 10-12 (20-24 for 4 servings) 1½-inch meatballs.

  • Swap in beef* for pork.

4
ROAST PATTIES & GREEN BEANS

  • Roast on top rack until patties are cooked through and green beans are browned and tender, 14-16 minutes.

5
SIMMER SAUCE

  • When patties and green beans have 5 minutes left, in a large pan, combine chili sauce with remaining coconut milk over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by about half, 2-3 minutes.

  • Turn off heat. Stir in a squeeze of lime juice to taste.

6
FINISH & SERVE

  • Fluff rice with a fork; stir in lime zest and season with salt and pepper.

  • Add patties to pan with coconut chili sauce; toss to coat.

  • Divide rice between bowls; top with patties and green beans. Spoon any remaining sauce over patties. Sprinkle with peanuts. Serve with any remaining lime wedges on the side.
