Some other you might like are my Teriyaki Glazed Salmon, Teriyaki Chicken & Rice Skillet, and Crock Pot Teriyaki Steak Bites! These juicy Sriracha meatballs are an easy-to-make and flavorful dish made with ground turkey and mixed with a combination of common pantry ingredients to create moist and tender meatballs. I know it sounds funny to call a meatball moist, but honestly nothing is worse then a dry meatball! These have the perfect combination of ingredients, and tossed in the best glaze, so you can get dinner on the table quickly and know that is will taste delicious too!
Ground turkey: You need a little bit of fat to give the meatballs moisture and flavor. Choose a 93% lean/7% fat for the best results. Sriracha: This iconic spicy condiment adds heat and a distinctive flavor profile to the meatballs. The amount used can be adjusted according to personal preference for spice levels. If you don’t have Sriracha, feel free to use your favorite hot sauce. Breadcrumbs: Breadcrumbs help bind the meatballs together and provide a bit of texture. You can use traditional breadcrumbs or Panko. You can opt for a gluten-free alternative like almond flour if preferred, although I have only tested with regular breadcrumbs. Garlic: Minced garlic brings a savory depth to the meatballs and complements the other ingredients beautifully. Fresh Cilantro: Fresh herbs add brightness and freshness to the meatballs, elevating their flavor profile. Fresh ginger: Fresh ginger has a bright and zesty flavor, while the ginger paste that comes prepared in a jar or tube may lack a little bit of that freshness. However, it is very convenient and you can skip the peeling and mincing. Either way, ginger imparts lots of flavor in these meatballs.
