One Pot Sesame Chicken Meatballs Lo Mein Recipes

20-MINUTE LO MEIN WITH CHICKEN TERIYAKI MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Cook lo mein noodles in boiling water according to directions on package and drain well.
• In a large skillet or wok, cook the Aidells Teriyaki and Pineapple Chicken Meatballs in 1 tablespoon canola oil over medium high heat, turning occasionally, until heated through and browned on all sides (6-8 minutes). Remove from skillet and place on a plate.
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon of canola oil to skillet. Sauté the white parts of the green onions, sliced mushrooms, and sliced bell peppers over medium-high heat until softened and beginning to brown (about 5 minutes).
• Add the baby spinach and stir until wilted (about 2 minutes).
• Meanwhile, to make the sauce, whisk together the soy sauce (3 tablespoons), honey (1/2 tablespoon), toasted sesame oil (1 teaspoon), and Sriracha (1 teaspoon) in a small bowl until well combined (or shake together in a jar).
• Add the browned meatballs, cooked noodles, and sauce to the skillet and gently toss to combine.
• Serve immediately, garnished with the green parts of the scallions.

LO MEIN WITH HOISIN MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler; line a baking sheet with foil. Mix the ground beef, 1/4 cup water, 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 teaspoon ginger, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Form into 12 meatballs. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet and broil, turning once, until browned and cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook as the label directs; drain and rinse under cold water. Toss with 1 teaspoon vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Whisk 1/3 cup water, the oyster sauce, sesame oil, remaining 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a liquid measuring cup.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 2 minced garlic cloves and 2 teaspoons ginger, the scallions (reserve some of the greens for topping), cherry tomatoes and snow peas. Stir-fry until the snow peas are bright green, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the noodles and toss. Pour in the sauce mixture and toss until mostly absorbed, 1 to 2 minutes. Divide the noodle mixture and meatballs among bowls. Top with the reserved scallion greens.

SWEET & SPICY SESAME CHICKEN MEATBALL BOWLS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, water, sesame oil, sesame seeds, red chili paste, ginger, garlic, brown sugar and arrowroot (or corn) starch.
• In a large bowl, add the ground chicken, egg, breadcrumbs, green onion, cilantro, garlic, ginger, cayenne, salt and pepper. Use clean hands to mix and form into 16 golf ball sized meatballs.
• Place a large deep skillet over medium-high heat and add in sesame oil. Add the meatballs and brown on all sides and cook until done and the meat thermometer reads 165 degrees F. This should take about 10-12 minutes total. You may need to do this in batches, depending on how many meatballs you can fit in your skillet without overcrowding them. When the meatballs are done cooking, transfer them to a plate and set aside. Keep the heat in the pan.
• Wipe the skillet clean and add in 1 tablespoon sesame oil. Next add in broccoli florets, and cook, stirring frequently, for 6-8 minutes or until broccoli is slightly tender but still has a bite. The broccoli should get somewhat charred and slightly golden and crispy in places. Yum!
• Add chicken meatballs back to the pan with the broccoli and pour the sauce over, simmer on low until the sauce thickens slightly, about 2-5 minutes.
• Serve over rice of choice (we love my coconut rice!) and top with scallions, cilantro and chopped peanuts if desired.
