Baked Teriyaki Chicken Meatballs Recipe 445

CHICKEN TERIYAKI MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• For the meatballs: Combine the chicken, panko, scallions, egg and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Use a 1-ounce scoop to portion the chicken mixture into mounds (about 30 meatballs total), roll each into a ball and place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake until just cooked through, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
• For the teriyaki sauce: Whisk together the soy sauce, mirin, rice vinegar, brown sugar, cornstarch, garlic and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until slightly thickened and reduced by half, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside (you should have about 1 cup).
• For the garlic fried rice: Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the scallions and stir-fry 1 minute. Add the garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes and stir-fry until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the rice and 1 tablespoon of the teriyaki sauce and stir-fry until combined and heated through, about 3 minutes. Season with salt. Transfer to a serving platter and keep warm.
• For the stir-fried vegetables: Heat the oil in the skillet over high heat. Add the onion and bell pepper and stir-fry 1 minute. Add the broccoli and 2 tablespoons water. Season with salt and pepper.
• Stir-fry until the broccoli is bright green and still crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1/3 cup of the teriyaki sauce and cook until heated through. (Add more water if necessary, to thin the sauce.) Transfer to the serving platter and keep warm.
• Finish the meatballs: Add the remaining teriyaki sauce to the skillet and bring to a boil over high heat. Add the meatballs and toss until glazed and heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Spoon the meatballs over the rice and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

TERIYAKI CHICKEN MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Place Meatball ingredients in a bowl.
• Place cornflour in a bowl with 1 tbsp of the water, then mix until lump free. Then add the soy sauce, sake, mirin and sugar, mix.
• Add 2 tsp of Teriyaki Sauce into the Meatball bowl.
• Add remaining water into the Sauce and mix. Set aside.
• Mix Meatball mixture with your hands. Measure out 1 heaped tablespoon and roll into balls. See Note 3 for tips if mixture is too sticky.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add all the meatballs and cook, rolling to brown all over, for 5 minutes. They will still be a bit raw inside.
• Turn heat down. Give the Sauce a quick mix then add it into the pan. Bring to a simmer then cook for 2 - 3 minutes or until it thickens into a glossy sauce that coats the meatballs.
• Serve over rice, garnished with green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
