Description

Delicious Korean BBQ meatballs served with a spicy mayo dip, perfect for any gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise (for dip)
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce (for dip)
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice (for dip)
  • 1 teaspoon honey (for dip)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, panko breadcrumbs, green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, black pepper, red pepper flakes (if using), egg, and brown sugar. Mix until well combined.
  3. Using your hands, form the mixture into meatballs about 1 inch in diameter and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through and browned.
  5. While the meatballs are baking, prepare the spicy mayo dip by whisking together the mayonnaise, sriracha, lime juice, and honey in a small bowl. Adjust the sriracha to taste for desired spice level.
  6. Once the meatballs are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving with the spicy mayo dip.

Notes

  • For added flavor, consider adding chopped cilantro to the meatball mixture.
  • You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option.
  • For a fun twist, serve the meatballs in lettuce wraps instead of on a plate.
