2 T of Soy Sauce

1/2 C of Crushed Roasted Peanuts

1 T of Onion Powder

1 T of Brown Sugar

2 Eggs

 

For the Glaze

1/2 C of honey Soy Sauce

1/4 C of Vegetable Oil

1 T of Peanut Butter

2 Green Onions, Sliced Thin

Combine all the ingredients but don’t overwork the mixture.

 

The steps are super simple, the key to this recipe is making sure the meatballs rest on the counter before baking them.

 

Method

Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl.

This mixture is messy to work with so you may want to wear gloves. Mix the ingredients well until they are combined, but do not overwork the meat mixture.

Use about 2 T of the meat mixture and form 2 inch size balls, you may need to add more or less meat to each ball to make them even so that they cook evenly.  The peanuts also pop out a little bit, while rolling, push them into the center of the meatball.

Place each rolled meatball onto a foil lined cookie sheet. When you have them all rolled, let them rest on the cookie sheet for 30 minutes at room temperature.

Heat your oven to 200degrees and place the meatballs in to bake, this should take about 20 minutes, test one to make sure they are done before taking them out of the oven.

To make your glaze add your vegetable oil and say sauce and bring to a low simmer.  Add the peanut butter and whisk until well combined and creamy.

Add the meatballs to the pan and toss to coat.

 

SERVE WITH RICE AND ASIAN STYLE SALAD.
