korean-glazed meatballs

Easy

These lean meatballs stay plump and moist, baking at moderate heat until perfectly done. Meanwhile, a sweet-spicy glaze of gochujang (Korean red chile paste), honey, and rice vinegar melts together on the stovetop, and the cooked meatballs are tossed in this glaze to coat. Though the gochujang mixture has some spicy kick, the meatballs themselves are quite mild, so the flavors balance out. Set out as part of an appetizer spread with toothpicks or fondue forks for easy serving.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound uncooked 99% fat-free ground turkey breast
  • ⅔ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
  • ½ medium uncooked onion, grated
  • 2 medium garlic cloves, grated
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup(s) gochujang hot pepper paste
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp uncooked scallions, thinly sliced
  • 1½ tsp unsalted toasted sesame seeds



Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl combine turkey, panko, soy sauce, onion, garlic, and egg. Mix well until thoroughly combined. Shape mixture into 24 balls, about 2 tbsp each. Arrange on prepared baking sheet.
  3. Bake meatballs at 400°F until cooked through, 15 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, combine gochujang, honey, and vinegar. Cook over medium-low heat until warm and well combined, about 2 minutes. Add meatballs and toss gently to coat. Spoon meatballs into a bowl or onto a platter. Sprinkle with scallions and sesame seeds.
