2 cloves Garlic minced for meatballs
1 tablespoon Ginger freshly grated, for meatballs
1 teaspoon Soy Sauce for meatballs

Directions
1.
Preheat oven to 400° F. In a large bowl, combine ground meat, Panko, eggs, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and pepper. Using a wooden spoon or clean hands, stir until well combined. 2.
Roll the mixture into 1 1/4- to 1 1/2-inch meatballs. Place meatballs onto baking sheet sprayed with non-stick spray and bake until golden brown and cooked through, about 20-25 minutes. 3.
In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and 1/4 cup water; set aside. 4.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, add soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, garlic powder, honey, and ⅓ cup water; bring to a simmer. Add cornstarch into mixture and stir until thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 2 minutes. 5.
Toss meatballs immediately with teriyaki sauce, garnished with green onion and sesame seeds, if desired. Amount Per Serving |
