ASIAN CHICKEN MEATBALLS
I had a craving for a very moist, chicken meatball one day. I love Asian flavors. This is the result. This has become one of our standard meals. We usually serve with a vegetable stir-fry and rice.

- Using hands, or a small scoop, form a ball of meat about the size of a golf ball, place in the hot skillet.
- The meat mixture is very wet and loose, it will not hold it's shape well, so keep the balls small or they will flatten as they cook.
- Saute meatballs about 2 minutes or until browned on bottom, turn gently to an uncooked side, and continue cooking.
- Keep turning the meatballs as they cook, so that all sides are browned evenly.
- Cut a meatball open to test for doneness by verifying that it is cooked through to the center.
- Remove cooked meatballs and keep warm until all are done.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of the sambal, the soy sauce, ginger, chicken, water chestnuts, garlic, scallions, cilantro and 2 tablespoons water (this will keep the meatballs really moist!). Use your hands to squish the mixture together until combined.
- Form a little tester patty and then cook and taste to make sure the chicken is really delicious. If the seasoning isn't just right, add a little more soy sauce or a sprinky-dink of salt. When you're confident the meatball mix is perfectly seasoned, form the meatballs.
- Roll the meatballs in the peanuts, and place on a small baking sheet. Roast until meatballs are cooked through, 12 minutes.
- In a small bowl, add the mayonnaise and the remaining 2 tablespoons sambal. Stir to combine and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Serve the meatballs hot with the chili-mayonnaise.
Tips:
- Make sure to use fresh, ground chicken for the best flavor and texture.
- If you don't have panko breadcrumbs, you can use regular breadcrumbs or crushed crackers.
- Be careful not to overmix the chicken mixture, or the meatballs will be tough.
- Use a spoon or a small cookie scoop to form the meatballs for even sizing.
- Don't overcrowd the meatballs in the pan when cooking. Give them enough space to brown evenly.
- Serve the chicken meatballs with your favorite dipping sauce or glaze.
Conclusion:
These Asian-style chicken meatballs are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They're perfect for parties or potlucks, and they're sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
