Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Into a large bowl, add ground chicken, egg, breadcrumbs, ginger, garlic and soy sauce, and mix until evenly incorporated.
  3. Using a 1- or two-2 tablespoon cookie scoop, portion out meatballs, roll with your hands and place on baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until cooked through.
  5. Meanwhile, make the teriyaki sauce. In a small dish, combine cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water and set aside.
  6. Into a saucepan over medium heat, add the 1/4 cup water, soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger and garlic. Bring to a boil, then slowly whisk in cornstarch mixture, whisking constantly for 30 to 60 seconds until sauce is thickened. Remove from heat.
  7. When the meatballs are done, toss in teriyaki sauce. Serve warm garnished with green onion and sesame seeds.
