Categories     appetizer

Time 35m

Yield 2 to 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup sambal oelek
2 tablespoons soy sauce, plus more if needed
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
8 ounces ground chicken
4 ounces canned water chestnuts, coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlic, smashed and finely chopped
2 scallions, whites thinly sliced
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, leaves finely chopped
Kosher salt
1 cup roasted peanuts, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons mayonnaise

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:

  • Choose the right ground meat: The best meatballs are made with a combination of ground beef and ground pork. This gives them a juicy and flavorful texture.
  • Season the meatball mixture well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of spices and herbs to the meatball mixture. This will give them a delicious flavor that will shine through in the finished dish.
  • Handle the meatball mixture gently: Overworking the meatball mixture will make the meatballs tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined, then form them into meatballs.
  • Use a light touch when cooking the meatballs: Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the meatballs, or they will steam instead of brown. Cook them over medium-low heat so that they have a chance to cook through without burning.
  • Serve the meatballs with a flavorful sauce: The meatballs are delicious on their own, but they are even better when served with a flavorful sauce. Try serving them with a sweet and sour sauce, a teriyaki sauce, or a hoisin sauce.

Asian-style meatballs are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little planning and effort, you can create a delicious and memorable meal that your family and friends will love.
