Ingredients

  • Meatballs
  • 1 1/4 lb. ground turkey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons grated ginger
  • 1/4 cup chopped Italian parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Sauce
  • 1/3 cup rice vinegar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons grated ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil (for easy clean-up) and spray with cooking spray.
  • Add all of the ingredients for the meatballs to a large bowl and use your hands to combine until evenly distributed - try not to overmix. Using about 2 tablespoons of the mixture (I just eyeballed it), form the meatballs by rolling the mixture into a ball in your hands. Arrange the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until browned and cooked through.
  • To make the sauce: Whisk together all of the sauce ingredients in a small pan and place over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes.
  • When the meatballs have finished cooking, remove them from the oven and brush liberally with the sauce then return to the oven for 5 minutes. Serve with remaining sauce.
