Ingredients
Meatballs:
- 1 pound 80/20 ground beef
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- ¼ cup plain dry bread crumbs
- 1 clove garlic finely minced
- 1/3 cup white onion finely minced
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 1/2 cups Teriyaki sauce
Garnish:
- sesame seeds
- Sliced scallions
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and coat a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray.
- In a medium mixing bowl, break the ground beef into small pieces. Toss with the beaten egg, plain bread crumbs, minced garlic and onion and Kosher salt.
- Roll the ground beef mixture into 1 ¾ inch balls, placing into prepared baking pan. You should have about 20 meatballs.
- Bake the meatballs for 20 minutes. Remove.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the light brown sugar, ketchup, white vinegar, soy sauce, ground ginger and 1 1/4 cup water, whisking until smooth. Bring to a low simmer.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the cornstarch and remaining ¼ cup water until smooth. Whisk into the sauce and continue to simmer until sauce thickens, becomes a deep brown and is glossy. Simmer on low for 3-4 minutes to reduce slightly.
- Add the meatballs, draining and discarding from any excess fats and liquids in the pan.
- Simmer on low heat with meatballs for 25 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes.
- Garnish with the sesame seeds and scallions.
