Hot Mama Grade: B
Hot Mama Notes: I'm not sure these are good enough to make again, but it was an easy recipe and something different! I used Italian breadcrumbs as I was out of panko. I also added some smoked paprika to the meat mixture for extra flavor along with steak seasoning. I used the auto scoop which made meatball creation super easy. For the sauce, I used ginger powder as I had no fresh, and I put in two cloves of fresh garlic plus a splash of toasted sesame seed oil.

Ingredients You’ll Need
Ground turkey – I used ground turkey because that’s just what we prefer, but you could also use ground chicken, ground pork, or ground beef
Breadcrumbs – I used whole wheat panko breadcrumbs to help the meatballs keep their round shape, but feel free use gluten-free breadcrumbs or almond flour, if needed
Eggs – acts as a binder, along with the breadcrumbs, to hold all the ingredients together
Green onions – I like to mix these in with the meatballs for a boost of flavor and color, but I also sprinkle additional green onion on top when serving
Seasonings – a combination of garlic powder, salt and black pepper
For the Sauce:
Sriracha – the star of this recipe that adds a nice kick to this sauce! If this has too much heat for you, feel free to cut the amount of sriracha in half
Soy sauce – I always use low-sodium soy sauce as I find that regular soy sauce can make dishes too salty. You could also swap the soy sauce with tamari or coconut aminos to make this gluten-free
Rice Vinegar – you can also use white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
Sesame oil – adds that delicious Asian flavor to this sauce!
Honey – not only does this add some sweetness to the sauce without using refined sugars, but it also makes a nice sticky sweet glaze! You could also swap the honey with maple syrup if you don’t have honey on hand
Garlic – you can use fresh chopped garlic or minced garlic cloves from the jar
Ginger – fresh grated ginger is definitely best in this dish, but feel free to use 1 teaspoon ground ginger if that’s all you have

How to Make Honey Sriracha Meatballs
Make the meatballs. This you can easily do ahead of time! In a large bowl, mix together ground turkey, breadcrumbs, eggs, green onions, garlic powder, salt and black pepper until well combined. Shape mixture into 1 1/2 inch balls using a small cookie scoop or your hands and place them spaced apart on a baking sheet coated in nonstick cooking spray. You should get about 40 meatballs.
Bake! Bake the meatballs in the oven at 375 degrees F for 20 to 25 minutes, until browned and cooked through.
Make the sauce. While the meatballs are baking, combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a small pot over medium heat and bring to a boil, whisking continuously. Once the sauce is boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes to let the sauce thicken.
Serve and enjoy! Remove any excess grease off the cooked meatballs and toss with the honey sriracha sauce. Serve over brown rice and garnish with extra green onions and sesame seeds, if desired. Enjoy!
Great for Meal Prep
Seriously you guys this recipe is super easy and great for meal prep! I can’t begin to tell you how much I look forward to my lunch each day when I have these waiting for me. This meatball recipe makes about 40 (1 1/2-inch) meatballs so they’re perfect for my hubby and I to each have about 3 lunches leftover, once we devoured some for dinner of course. I’ve also been asked several times about where I purchased these Pyrex dishes (which I LOVE) for my meal prep bowls and you can find them HERE on Amazon!
I always like to make a big batch of brown rice to serve with these meatballs along with a side of vegetables as the rice really helps to cut the spice from the honey sriracha glaze. Check out my post on how to make perfect brown rice right in your Instant Pot every single time! You could also serve these meatballs over quinoa or even cauliflower rice if you’re watching your carbs. Then just top everything with some green onions and sprinkle on a few sesame seeds and you’ve got a deliciously FILLING, healthy meal all ready to go!

Prepping and Storage
Make Ahead: These meatballs can easily be prepped ahead of time and stored in the fridge tightly covered for 2 or 3 days before baking. Then when you’re ready to bake, pop them in the oven and make the sauce on the stove as directed. You can also easily prep the sauce ahead of time too! Just reheat in a saucepan right before tossing with the meatballs.
To Store: If you’re planning on storing these meatballs for later, let them cool completely then store then in a sealed, airtight container in your fridge for 3 to 4 days while the sauce itself will last up to 2 weeks.
To Freeze: These meatballs are freezer-friendly too and will last for up to 3 to 4 months frozen. I recommend freezing the sauce separately in a sealed, airtight container. To reheat, simply thaw the meatballs out in the fridge and place them in a skillet on low heat, stirring often, until warmed through. You could also reheat them in the microwave for 1 to 2 minutes.
