I absolutely love this recipe! The very second I saw these over at Gimme Some Oven I knew I had to give them a try immediately! Let me tell you, I wasn’t disappointed! These meatballs are so incredibly delicious and I love the sweet sticky gingery sauce!
These make a perfect appetizer but can easily be turned into a meal by adding some stir fried vegetables and serving them on a bed of rice! My kids gobble these down!

Is the cornstarch supposed to be in the sauce instead of he meatballs?
No, the cornstarch is in the meatball mixture as written.
I made these for dinner last night – subbed GF panko to make them gluten free. SOOOO GOOOD!
A few left over today, so I’m chopping them up for pizza toppings tonight.
Thanks for the great recipe!
So glad you enjoyed them! :)
if you use ground beef or turkey is the cook time for the meatballs different?
The cook time would be the same.
Those look amazing.
I love asian food. Best food on this planet.
I have to try these next paycheck.
