I like trying to expand my comfort zone. Using ground turkey is one way that I have done so. When I can mix it with ingredients that I know I'll enjoy like scallions and garlic I'm willing to try something new.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup panko crumbs
- 1-1/4 lbs 93% lean ground turkey
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp ginger, minced
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (omitted)
- 3 scallions, chopped
- 1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- 4 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 chopped fresh scallion
Preparation
Preheat oven to 500°F.
Mix ground turkey, panko, egg, salt, scallions, cilantro, 1 tbsp soy sauce, and 2 tsp oil and mix with your hands until combined well. Shape 1/4 cup meat mixture into a ball and transfer to a baking dish. Repeat with remaining mixture. Bake until cooked through, about 15 minutes.
For the dipping sauce mix together lime juice, water, soy sauce, and remaining 2 teaspoons of oil in a bowl. Add scallions.
Transfer meatballs to a serving dish. Stir sauce, then drizzle meatballs with 1 tablespoon sauce.
Serve meatballs with remaining sauce. Chances are you won't use all the dipping sauce.
Review & Changes- I was not that impressed with this recipe. The meatballs were good, especially being made with turkey. But the sauce was not something I liked, and so plain meatballs wasn't that great. Can't see myself making this recipe again.
