Time 50m

Yield 24 meatballs

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 large egg
2 tablespoons bottled teriyaki glaze
2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce (see Cook's Note)
1 pound ground chicken
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
Salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons minced fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons minced green onion

1/8 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
Salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

  • Place the ground chicken in a large bowl. Add the egg mixture, then sprinkle in the ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a pinch of black pepper. Add the cilantro and green onions.

  • Add the sweet chili sauce, teriyaki glaze, lime juice, sesame oil, sesame seeds, granulated garlic and ground ginger to a bowl; blend with a stick blender until thoroughly combined.
