Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F (190 C).

Heat up the Innovasian® Chicken Fried Rice.

Combine 1 1/2 cups of the chicken fried rice (keep the rest for serving), ground chicken (or turkey) meat, eggs, breadcrumbs, salt and pepper. Mix well.
-
Divide the rice-meat mixture into 12-2 inches in diameter balls. Place on greased (or aluminum foil covered) baking sheet. Bake 30-35 minutes or until fully cooked.

While albondigas are baking, prepare the sauce. Place tomatoes, jalapeño peppers, onion, garlic cloves, water, salt, and soy sauce in a blender and mix until smooth.
