These Sweet & Spicy Honey Sriracha Meatballs are the perfect blend of bold flavors and irresistible glaze.
Ingredients
- 1 pound 454 g lean ground beef
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 teaspoon 5 ml Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon 6 g salt
- 1/2 teaspoon 2 g garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon 1 g ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup 59 ml sriracha
- 3 tablespoons 44 ml honey
- 1 tablespoon 14 g salted butter
- 2 teaspoons 9.86 ml low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon 5 ml lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F(200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Mix together the first 6 ingredients in a mixing bowl until well combined. Form 1 1/2” meatballs.
- Place the meatballs on the baking tray. Bake for 10 minutes, turning once halfway through cooking.
- Meanwhile, mix together the sriracha, honey, butter, soy sauce, and lemon juice in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook for about 5 minutes, until the sauce has reduced and thickened slightly.
- After the meatballs have cooked for 10 minutes, remove them from the oven. Transfer them to a bowl and toss with half the honey sriracha sauce.
- Return them to the baking sheet and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, until the inside of the meatballs register 165°F(75°C) on a meat thermometer.
- Use the remaining sauce as a dipping sauce.
Notes
- You can also cook these meatballs in the air fryer on 400°F, for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking.
