Ingredients
For the meatballs:
- 2 pounds ground chicken (you can also use ground pork, turkey, or beef)
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
- 2 large eggs
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon sea salt (I swear by Real Salt)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/2 cup coconut flour (I use this brand)
For the dipping sauce:
- 1 tablespoon gluten free soy sauce or coconut aminos (I like this brand)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons unseasoned rice wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar erythritol (get it here)
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
For the meatballs:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients for the meatballs and mix until well incorporated.
- If the mixture seems too soft or sticky, refrigerate for 15 minutes before forming the meatballs.
- Form the meat mixture into 1 1/2 inch meatballs, making a total of 40. Line the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes or until the meatballs have reached an internal temperature of 165°F.
For the dipping sauce:
- Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl and which until well incorporated. Serve drizzled over top of, or alongside the meatballs.
