Teriyaki Meatballs

Teriyaki Meatballs are always popular and are so easy to make with just a few ingredients. Serve as a party appetizer or main dish with rice.

Ingredients
  

Teriyaki Sauce

  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce low sodium
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp honey

Meatballs

  • 2 lbs ground beef
  • 1/2 cup Panko
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 2 green onions thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp ginger freshly grated
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • sesame seeds optional garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a cooling rack with nonstick spray and place on baking sheet; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine ground beef, Panko, egg yolks, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce and white pepper. Stir until well combined (I use my hands to mix). Roll the mixture into 1 1/4-to-1 1/2-inch meatballs, forming about 40 meatballs.
  • Place meatballs onto prepared baking sheet and bake until golden brown and cooked through, approximately 20 minutes. An instant read thermometer should read 160 °F.

  • While the meatballs are baking, make the Teriyaki Sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and 1/4 cup water; set aside.In a small saucepan over medium heat, add soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, garlic powder, honey and 1 cup water; bring to a simmer. Stir in cornstarch mixture until thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 2 minutes.
  • Serve meatballs immediately with teriyaki sauce, garnished with green onion and sesame seeds, if desired.
