Time 30m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 lb ground turkey
1/3 cup dry breadcrumbs
1 egg
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks, do not drain
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 large red bell pepper, cut into chunks
2 -3 cups hot cooked rice

Steps:

  • Combine the ingredients for the meatballs in a large bowl. Shape turkey mixture into 1 inch balls.
  • Heat a small amount of oil in a skillet. Add the meatballs & fry on all sides until no longer pink in the center, around 5 minutes. Place the meatballs on a paper towel lined plate to drain excess oil.

  • Whisk the pineapple juice, orange juice, honey, soy sauce, cornstarch, & pepper flakes together.
  • Pour the sauce into the skillet & cook over medium heat until it thickens, stir frequently.
  • Once thickened, add in the pineapple, peppers, & meatballs. Continue to cook until hot. Serve over rice.

These meatballs were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I think I would use less cayenne pepper next time.

These meatballs were a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I would add more liquid next time, or maybe use a different type of ground turkey.
