Ingredients
1 pound ground turkey
0.5 cups minced cilantro
0.5 cups dry bread crumbs
1 egg
, lightly beaten
2 scallions
, minced
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
Make the meatballs: Combine turkey, cilantro, bread crumbs, egg, scallions, vegetable oil, sesame oil, and soy sauce in a large bowl. Gently mix with your hands until combined. Roll tablespoon-sized scoops between your palms to form meatballs. Arrange meatballs on the prepared baking sheet.
3
Bake in the preheated oven until well browned, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
4
While the meatballs are cooking, make the dipping sauce: Smash ginger with the heavy side of a knife and place into a small pot. Add brown sugar, soy sauce, and rice vinegar. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, until sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Simmer, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Fish out ginger and pour sauce into small cups for serving.
5
Serve meatballs alongside sauce, with toothpicks for dipping.
