Ingredients
  

Meatballs

  • 1 lbs Ground Chicken pork or beef work too
  • 2 tablespoon Cilantro roughly chopped
  • 2 Green Onion thinly sliced
  • ½ Jalapeño finely diced
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 tablespoon Coconut Aminos
  • Salt and Pepper

Dipping Sauce

  • ¼ cup Coconut Aminos
  • 1 tablespoon Rice Vinegar
  • ½ Lime juiced
  • ½ tablespoon Cilantro roughly chopped
  • 1 Green Onion thinly sliced
  • ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon Red Chili Flakes

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Combine all meatball ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Mix gently until thoroughly combined. Be careful not to mix too much because it can make the meatballs dry.
  • Use a small scoop, melon baller, or meat baller to make 1 inch diameter meatballs (1 pound meat typically makes about 20 meatballs.)
  • Spray a sheet pan with non-stick spray and place the meatballs on the pan, evenly spaced.
  • Put the pan in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until the center of the meatballs have reached 165°F.
  • While the meatballs are cooking, combine all the ingredients for the dipping sauce in a bowl and whisk until combined.
  • Serve with cauliflower rice, stir-fried veggies or alone as an appetizer!
