Instructions
Creating these delectable Honey Garlic Turkey Meatballs is simple if you follow the steps below:
1. Preheat your oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, minced garlic, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, green onions, and the egg. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Form Meatballs: Using your hands, mix the ingredients until well combined. Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
4. Bake the Meatballs: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
5. Prepare Honey Garlic Sauce: While the meatballs are baking, whisk together honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil in a small saucepan.
6. Simmer: Heat the sauce over medium heat until it begins to bubble. Stir for about 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
7. Coat the Meatballs: Once the meatballs are done baking, remove them from the oven and drizzle the honey garlic sauce over them. Toss gently to coat.
8. Garnish: If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds over the meatballs for an added crunch.
9. Let Rest: Allow the meatballs to rest for 5 minutes to absorb the flavors of the sauce.
Following these steps will ensure that your Honey Garlic Turkey Meatballs turn out perfectly every time.
