  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 18 minute

Ingredients

– 1 pound ground beef or ground chicken
– 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
– 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
– 1/4 cup soy sauce
– 2 tablespoons brown sugar
– 1 tablespoon sesame oil
– 1 egg
– 1 teaspoon black pepper
– 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
– Sesame seeds, for garnish
– Additional green onions, for garnish


Instructions

Making Korean BBQ Meatballs is a simple process that anyone can follow. Here are the step-by-step instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the ground meat, breadcrumbs, chopped green onions, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, egg, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
3. Form Meatballs: Using your hands, mix the ingredients until well combined. Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter.
4. Place on Baking Sheet: Arrange the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space in between each meatball.
5. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through and golden brown.
6. Prepare Glaze: While the meatballs are baking, you can make the glaze. In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and a teaspoon of sesame oil. Heat over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved.
7. Coat Meatballs: Once the meatballs are done baking, drizzle or brush the glaze over them, ensuring they are well-coated.
8. Garnish: Sprinkle sesame seeds and additional chopped green onions on top for added flavor and presentation.
9. Serve Hot: Remove from the oven and serve the meatballs hot.
