Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey or chicken breast
- 1/2 medium onion, grated + 1/4 cup finely diced onion
- 1/2 cup sliced green onion
- 1/2 cup finely diced carrot (I use shredded carrots and then chop)
- 1/8 cup chopped cilantro, plus more for garnish
- 2 large garlic cloves, grated
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 1/2 tsp sesame oil, divided
- 1 1/2 tsp fish sauce
- 1 tbsp + 1/4 tsp sriracha, divided
- 1 1/2 tsp packed brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tbsp + 1 tsp rice vinegar, divided
- 5 radishes, sliced very thin
- 1/2 small cucumber, sliced very thin
- 1/2 cup low-fat mayo
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using your hands, combine ground turkey, grated onion, diced onion, green onion, carrot, cilantro, garlic, soy sauce, 2 teaspoons sesame oil, fish sauce, 2 teaspoons sirracha, brown sugar, egg and panko in a medium bowl. Do not over mix.
- Use a small cookie scoop to form meat into 1-inch meatballs and line up on a cookie sheet. Bake for 20 minutes or until meatballs are golden brown and cooked through.
- While the meatballs cook, toss sliced cucumbers and radishes with 2 tablespoons rice vinegar in a small bowl. (The radishes may tint the cucumbers, if you don't want them to bleed at all, marinate them in separate bowls.)
- Also while the meatballs cook, mix remaining vinegar, sirracha, sesame oil and mayo in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Skewer one slice of cucumber and one slice of radish onto cocktail skewer, followed by one meatball. Serve with mayo.
