Ingredients:

• Meatballs:
• 1 lb. ground chuck
• 1 1/4 lb. ground turkey (93/7)
• 1 cup(s) panko
• 1 egg
• 2 eggs, whites only
• 2 tsp. sesame oil
• 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
• 3 tsp. minced garlic
• 1/2 cup(s) thinly sliced green onions
• Sauce:
• 2/3 cup(s) hoisin sauce
• 1/4 cup(s) duck sauce
• 1/4 cup(s) rice vinegar
• 2 tsp. minced garlic
• 2 tbsp. low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 tsp. sesame oil
• 1 tsp. ground ginger
• red pepper flakes

Instructions:

• 1. Preheat oven to 400º.
• 2. In a large bowl, mix together all the meatball ingredients. I find it’s easiest to do this with my hands.
• 3. Form into balls about 1-1.5″ in diameter and place on a baking sheet lightly sprayed with nonstick spray.
• 4. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until meatballs are no longer pink on the inside.
• 5. Whisk together all the sauce ingredients until well blended. You can either drizzle sauce on each meatball for a fancy presentation or put the meatballs into the sauce and coat evenly.
• 6. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds (I buy these already toasted) and sliced green onion.
