Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray and set aside. 
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender. Then remove from heat and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the beef, breadcrumbs, egg, ketchup, soy sauce and seasonings. Mix just until combined (don’t over mix). Then roll into 12 even sized balls (about 2 Tbsp/70g each). Place meatballs in the prepared muffin pan. 
  4. Mix all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl then spoon over the meatballs. Smooth the top of each meatball evenly with the back of your spoon.
  5. Bake meatballs for 24-28 minutes (I did 25 minutes) or until no longer pink when cut through the center. 
  6. Serve with sides of choice! See ideas in notes.
