INGREDIENTS:
Meatballs
1lb ground chicken breast
1lb ground chicken (it’s 50% less fat)
⅔ cup panko breadcrumbs
2 Tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon Chinese 5 spice
½ cup thin sliced green onions
1 Tablespoon minced garlic
2 large eggs, beaten
¾ teaspoon salt
Saucupe
½ cup hoisin sauce
¼ cup rice vinegar
1 Tablespoon garlic, minced
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 Tablespoon soy sauce
1 Tablespoon brown sugar
¼ cup chicken broth
1-2 teaspoon sriracha sauce
1 Tablespoon tomato paste
1-2 Tablespoons cornstarch (To thicken the sauce)
HOW TO COOK:
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Lightly spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Place all of the meatball ingredients in a large bowl and mix until well combined. Refrigerate for about 10 minutes to firm up the mixture.
3. Wet your hands slightly and roll the meatballs into 1 ½ -2 inch smooth balls. Continue to wet your hands in between, it makes it easier to roll as the meatballs are sticky.
4. Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes (internal temperature should be 165).
5. In a saucepan, whisk the sauce ingredients (except the cornstarch) and cook on medium heat. Gradually whisk in the cornstarch until you've reach your desired level of thickness.
6. Remove the meatballs from the oven. Using a spoon, drop them into the sauce in batches and coat on all sides. Remove and set on a serving plate. Top with green onions & sesame seeds (optional) and enjoy these on their own or over rice!
