Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef or turkey
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1 egg
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger grated
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Meatball Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine ground meat, breadcrumbs, green onions, egg, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Season with salt and pepper. Mix until just combined.
- Form Meatballs: Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked through and browned.
- Prepare Teriyaki Sauce: While the meatballs are baking, in a small saucepan, combine teriyaki sauce and brown sugar. Heat over medium until the sugar dissolves and the sauce is slightly thickened.
- Glaze the Meatballs: Once the meatballs are baked, remove them from the oven and drizzle the teriyaki sauce over them, tossing gently to coat.
- Serve: Transfer the glazed meatballs to a serving platter, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and serve hot, alongside rice or as an appetizer.
