Cooking Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease baking sheet.
  • In a large bowl combine ground turkey, sesame oil, bread crumbs, ginger, eggs, and minced garlic. Mix well with your hands until all ingredients are combined.
  • Shape turkey mixture into 1 ½" balls and place them on a prepared baking sheet. Cook for 20-23 minutes or until meat is no longer pink in the middle.
  • While meatballs are cooking, combine hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, sesame oil, ground ginger, soy sauce, and sriracha sauce in a medium-large skillet.
  • Bring sauce to a boil over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
  • Remove meatballs from the oven and place them in the Asian sauce. Coat meatballs well and serve over rice or noodles. Sprinkle sesame seeds and green onion on top for a garnish. Enjoy!
