Asian Chicken Meatballs

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°F. In a medium mixing bowl, stir together all of the meatball ingredients until thoroughly combined. Set mixture aside for 5 minutes.

Step 2

Line a baking sheet or casserole dish with parchment paper or spray well with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 3

Use a 1 tablespoon cookie dough scoop (for small meatballs) to form balls from the meat mixture. Place the meatballs with just a bit of space between each one in the prepared baking dish.

Step 4

Bake for 15 minutes, checking to make sure the meatballs reach an internal temp of 165°F.

Step 5

In the last few minutes of cooking time, whisk together all of the glaze ingredients (except for the cornstarch mixture) in a skillet or saucepan. Heat over medium until the mixture comes to a boil.

Step 6

Transfer the cooked meatballs into the sauce and toss gently to coat.

Step 7

Toast a tablespoon of sesame seeds in a dry skillet for just a minute or two until they are lightly browned. Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the glazed meatballs.
