  • Meatball Ingredients
  • 2 lbs. ground turkey
  • 2 tsp. sesame oil for meatballs
  • 1 cup dry bread crumbs plain
  • 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
  • 2 eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 tsp. minced garlic for meatballs
  • Asian Glaze Ingredients
  • 2/3 cup hoisin sauce
  • 1/3 cup rice vinegar
  • 2 1/2 Tbsp. honey
  • 1 tsp. minced garlic for sauce
  • 1 1/2 tsp. sesame oil for sauce
  • 1 tsp. ground ginger
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease baking sheet.
  2. In a large bowl combine ground turkey, sesame oil, bread crumbs, ginger, eggs, and minced garlic. Mix well with your hands until all ingredients are combined.
  3. Shape turkey mixture into 1 1/2" balls and place them on a prepared baking sheet. Cook for 20-23 minutes or until meat is no longer pink in the middle.
  4. While meatballs are cooking, combine hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, sesame oil, ground ginger, soy sauce, and siracha sauce in a medium-large skillet.
  5. Bring sauce to a boil over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
  6. Remove meatballs from the oven and place them in the Asian sauce. Coat meatballs well and serve over rice or noodles. Sprinkle sesame seeds and green onion on top for a garnish. Enjoy!
