Ingredients
- MEATBALLS:
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 1 medium garlic clove, minced
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- TARE SAUCE:
- 1/4 cup water
- 3 TBSP soy sauce
- 1 TBSP cooking sherry
- 1 TBSP raw honey
- 1 tsp freshly minced ginger
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Use your hands to mix the MEATBALL ingredients together in a large mixing bowl until well combined.
- Toss small amounts of the chicken mixture between your hands to form balls about 1-inch in diameter and place them on a rimmed baking sheet at least 1/2-inch away from each other.
- Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 12 minutes.
- Stir together the TARE SAUCE ingredients to a large wok or saute pan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat to medium and simmer, stirring often, until sauce is thickened a bit, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer the meatballs to the pan and toss with the sauce.
- Simmer the meatballs in the sauce, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
