Instructions

Creating these delectable Teriyaki Meatballs is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef or turkey, breadcrumbs, green onions, egg, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, and black pepper.
3. Form the Meatballs: Use your hands to mix everything until just combined. Shape the mixture into meatballs, each about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
4. Bake the Meatballs: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until they are cooked through and slightly browned.
5. Prepare the Teriyaki Glaze: While the meatballs are baking, combine teriyaki sauce and a splash of water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring it to a gentle simmer, and let it thicken slightly.
6. Glaze the Meatballs: Once cooked, remove the meatballs from the oven and brush them generously with the teriyaki glaze. Place them back in the oven for an additional 5 minutes.
7. Garnish and Serve: Once they are out of the oven, sprinkle sesame seeds and extra green onions over the top. Serve hot!
