Ingredients
Scale
For the Meatballs:
1 pound ground beef (or ground turkey)
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon ginger, grated
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 egg
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon brown sugar (optional)
For the Spicy Mayo Dip:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Sriracha (or more, to taste)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon soy sauce
Optional: sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish
Instructions
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Mix the Meatball Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, green onions, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Form the Meatballs: Using your hands, form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart.
Bake the Meatballs: Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and have a nice golden color.
Prepare the Spicy Mayo Dip: While the meatballs are baking, mix the mayonnaise, Sriracha, lemon juice, and soy sauce in a small bowl. Adjust the Sriracha amount based on your preferred spice level.
Garnish the Dip: If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the dip for added flavor and visual appeal.
Serve: Once the meatballs are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve warm alongside the spicy mayo dip.
