ASIAN MEATBALLS

Tender, moist, delicious, these Asian Meatballs are wonderful served over rice or mashed potatoes as a main dish. They can also be skewered and served as an appetizer. Either way, you will want to try these gluten-free meatballs that can be ready in 30 minutes.

Asian Meatballs

I used ground pork for this recipe but you could also use beef. While many add eggs as a binder, I found it wasn’t necessary for these meatballs. They held together well without them.

In a large mixing bowl, add the meatball ingredients. Mix well without overworking and form into one-inch balls. Overworking the meat mixture will cause them to be tough. Place on a baking tray lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper.

Meatball Mixture

Meatballs

Place in a preheated 375-degree oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until cooked through.

Meanwhile, mix the sauce ingredients in a large saute pan. Heat on low heat until the peanut butter is melted and the sauce is creamy.

Asian Meatball Sauce

Add the baked meatballs to the sauce and toss.

I served this over cooked jasmine rice. Spoon a little of the remaining sauce over the top if you prefer.

Asian Meatballs

Served as an appetizer or snack, these Asian Meatballs would be perfect for Super Bowl parties or any gathering where finger foods are being served. They are also perfect for a quick, healthy, weeknight meal. This recipe easily doubles for more servings.
