1 jalapeno pepper (I chopped with glove and kept seeds/insides, could have been spicier)
1/4 cup chopped white onion (I forgot to do)

Veggies:

Notes: Original recipe called for 4 Tbsp peanut butter, but I added an extra while tasting it. Tasted a bit watery. Eric's recipe had 1 full cup of peanut butter.
It was a lot of work. Eric mentioned just using chicken and peanut sauce without the meatball part. Would try cooking one more time now that I know how to do the order of things.
There was a low level spice, but could have been spicier.
I like the ground chicken because HEB packaged more than 1 lb. It was pretty mushy when using.
