Kung Pao Style Turkey Meatballs
Ingredients for meatballs:
1# Lean ground turkey
2 cloves minced garlic
1 teaspoon minced ginger
1/2 cup finely minced onion
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 Tablespoon Chili Garlic Sauce (I used this: http://www.amazon.com/Huy-Fong-Chili-Garlic-18/dp/B000LO25RG)
1 whole egg, beaten
4 Tablespoons flour
1/3 cup old fashioned oats
Sauce:
3 Tablespoons lower sodium soy sauce
2 Tablespoons Sriracha
1 Table spoon garlic chili sauce (same as above)
3 Tablespoons honey
1/2-1 Tablespoon sesame seeds
Method:
1: Preheat oven to 400F
2: Line a large cookie sheet with foil (I used the non stick foil and needed no oil spray)
3: Mix turkey, garlic, ginger, onion, salt, pepper, garlic chili sauce, egg, flour and oats until well combined.
4: Form meatballs. Use a tablespoon measure to size. I got 18-20 meatballs from this mixture.
5: Place on cookie sheet and bake for 25 minutes, turning once half way to brown evenly.
6: Mix sauce ingredients in a large enough bowl to hold cooked meat balls for coating.
7: When meatballs are cooked, add to the sauce bowl and toss gently to coat... serve with remaining sauce drizzled over them.
Makes 4 servings.
