Grilled Sriracha-Sesame Turkey Meatballs

Directions

Preheat the grill to medium-high. If you’re going to cook meatballs right on the grill, spray with non-stick grill spray or oil the grates with a towel dipped into oil before you heat the grill. Finely chop the garlic, ginger, and green onions. I used the mini-chopper attachment of my immersion blender to do this, but you can also chop them by hand. Put the ground turkey, egg, bread crumbs or almond meal, chopped garlic, chopped ginger, chopped green onions, sesame seeds, Sriracha Sauce, and salt into a bowl and combine gently with your hands until all ingredients are well distributed into the meat. Then form meatballs with your hands. If you’re using a grill grid pan like I did, spray it with non-stick spray or oil and put it on top of the grill to pre-heat for 5 minutes before you put the meatballs on. Grill meatballs until they are cooked through, turning every 5-7 minutes until all sides are nicely browned. Total cooking time will be about 30 minutes, or slightly less if you’re cooking the meatballs directly on the grill. Serve hot, garnished with some sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired. These kept well in the refrigerator overnight and were delicious just reheated a minute or so in the microwave.
