Tangy Thai Chicken Meatballs Recipes

THAI CHICKEN MEATBALLS WITH SPICY PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• Meatball Preparation: Add all the ingredients for the meatballs (except panko breadcrumbs) to a mixing bowl. Use a spoon to mix everything together until combined.
• Put the panko breadcrumbs onto a large dinner plate and use a dessert spoon to scoop out 1 spoonful of meat mixture and drop into the crumbs. (Make sure to do one at a time as the mixture will be quite moist, however the breadcrumbs will make it more manageable).
• Roll the spoonful of meat in the breadcrumbs until a ball (approx. golf ball size) is formed. Set meatballs aside on a clean plate and repeat until all the meat is rolled into balls. (you should end up with about 16 or so)
• Cover and refrigerate the meatballs whilst the other parts of the recipe are prepared.
• Slaw: Add all of the slaw ingredients to a medium sized bowl (without the dressing), cover and refrigerate until just before serving.
• Dressing: Add all the dressing ingredients into a small mixing bowl or jar and whisk to combine. Cover and refrigerate until just before serving.
• Cooking the Meatballs: Heat a large pan/skillet on medium to high heat with the oil. Gently add all the meatballs, and cook, gently turning with a spatula or tongs - about 10 minutes or so. While they are cooking, make the peanut sauce.
• Peanut Sauce: Heat a small saucepan on medium and melt the peanut butter. Add the garlic, ginger, soy sauce, honey, lime juice and siracha, stir with a spoon to combine and heat through until sauce is thickened. Gradually add the milk 1 tablespoon at a time and stir through to thin out to your liking. Remove from heat once desired consistency is achieved.
• To serve: Give the dressing a shake or another whisk and add to the bowl of slaw and toss through with a couple of forks. Arrange the slaw on two plates, place the meatballs, and drizzle over the spicy peanut sauce. Optional garnishes could include sesame seeds, chopped peanuts and spring onion.
