Kittencal's Honey-Garlic Glazed Meatballs image

This is an easy recipe made even easier if your meatballs are pre-made ahead of time which makes this a perfect weekday meal served with cooked rice ---I have listed the chili flakes as optional you may adjust to suit taste or omit, my family likes extreme heat so I use 1 teaspoon --- the meatballs must be pre cooked before adding to the sauce, you may use frozen cooked store bought meatballs or use your own favorite recipe, you may double the sauce recipe if desired, prep time does not include preparing and cooking the meatballs.

Provided by Kristen Rose

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Meat and Poultry     Meatball Appetizer Recipes

Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

¼ cup minced garlic
¼ cup soy sauce
½ cup honey
2 tablespoons garlic powder
3 tablespoons onion powder
1 ½ teaspoons chili powder
3 pounds ground moose
2 tablespoons canola oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Stir together the minced garlic, soy sauce, and honey together in a small saucepan. Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, and chili powder. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and gently simmer for 15 minutes, then set aside.
  • While the sauce is simmering, roll the ground moose into meatballs in 2 tablespoon portions. Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the meatballs in batches until well browned, and cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes; drain well.
  • Place the drained meatballs into a baking dish. Pour on the sauce, and stir until well coated. Bake in preheated oven for about 20 minutes so the meatballs absorb some of the sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground meat: A combination of ground beef and ground pork is often used for meatballs, as it provides a good balance of flavor and texture. You can also use all beef or all pork, depending on your preference.
  • Season the meat thoroughly: Don't be afraid to season the meat liberally with salt, pepper, and other spices. This will help to develop flavor and keep the meatballs from tasting bland.
  • Use fresh bread crumbs: Fresh bread crumbs will help to bind the meatballs together and give them a light and airy texture. Avoid using dry or stale bread crumbs, as they will make the meatballs tough.
  • Don't overmix the meat: Overmixing the meat will make the meatballs tough. Mix the meat just until it is combined, then form it into balls.
  • Brown the meatballs before baking: Browning the meatballs in a skillet before baking them will help to seal in the juices and give them a nice golden brown color.
  • Use a good quality honey garlic sauce: The honey garlic sauce is what makes these meatballs so delicious. Be sure to use a sauce that is made with real honey and garlic.
  • Serve the meatballs hot: Meatballs are best served hot, right out of the oven. They can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish.

Conclusion:

Honey garlic meatballs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying meal, give these honey garlic meatballs a try. You won't be disappointed!
