Teriyaki Meatballs Recipe
My Turkey Teriyaki Meatballs are a crowd-favorite entree spooned over cooked rice or appetizer with toothpicks to serve. We swap ground turkey for a leaner meatball with all the same flavor and texture. The meatballs are moist and savory with an irresistibly sweet-savory, easy homemade Teriyaki sauc

Instructions
- Preheat - Line a 17x12 rimmed baking sheet with parchment or foil. Preheat oven to 400˚F.
- Combine meatball ingredients - in a large bowl: ground turkey, bread crumbs, green onion, egg, fresh ginger, pressed garlic clove, sesame oil, salt and pepper. Use your hands or a spoon to mix just until combined. The mixture should feel moist. If it seems dry, add milk or water, 1 Tbsp at a time.
- Roll meatballs - into 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" balls and bake at 400 for 13-18 mins or until juices run clear or a meat thermometer reads 165˚F. Meanwhile, make the sauce.
- Make Teriyaki Sauce - Simmer the sauce ingredients together in a small saucepan for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently or until slightly thickened.
- Combine Meatballs and Sauce - Transfer warm meatballs to a mixing bowl, drizzle with warm sauce, and toss to combine. Serve over rice, garnished with chives and sesame seeds if desired.
