Asian Baked Turkey Meatballs
With the temperatures dropping and the holidays just around the corner, you may be sorting through your recipe collection, looking for that ideal autumn appetizer for your upcoming get-together. No need to fret—we have a scrumptious and straightforward appetizer recipe that blends sweet and spicy flavors, guaranteed to please your guests.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
Grab a large bowl and place ground turkey and the rest of the ingredients in. Mix until combined. You don’t want to over mix, just incorporate well.
Use a tablespoon and scoop a heaping portion of the mixture into the middle of your hand. Slightly roll mixture together to form a ball and place on baking sheet. Repeat until all mixture is done.
Bake meatballs for 25-28 Minutes or until the top begins to turn golden brown.
In another large bowl add all sauce ingredients. Mix together well.
When the meatballs are out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes. Then, place them in the bowl with the sauce and toss to fully cover the meatballs.
Slightly toast the sesame seeds by placing in a small non-stick pan on medium heat. Move the pan in a circular motion. As the seeds warm, their oils will extract slightly from the seed giving off an amazing aroma. Remove from stove and set aside until ready to garnish.
Notes: If you're serving these by themselves, place them on a fun plate and insert a toothpick in the tops of each one. Sprinkle on the sesame seeds and scallion and serve hot. If eating as a main dish, cook your sides accordingly and plate. Top with turkey meatballs and garnishes and serve.
