Asian Meatballs

Preheat the oven to 400 F. Grease a baking sheet with avocado oil.

Finely chop the green onion, garlic, and poblano pepper. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, add ground pork, ground chicken, egg, arrowroot flour, green onion, poblano pepper, garlic, ginger, coconut amino, and salt. Use a spoon or your hands to combine the ingredients well.

Roll the batter into balls using your hands. (approx. 24 - 26 meatballs for 2 lb of meat). Wet your hands with cold water to prevent the meat from sticking to your hands.

Place the meatballs on the greased baking sheet.

Bake the meatballs for 13-15 minutes. Broil for 2 minutes in the end. Make sure internal temperature has reached 165F.

Sticky Asian Sauce

Add coconut aminos, chicken stock, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, and coconut sugar to a skillet and whisk together.

Add the arrowroot flour to the skillet and whisk to combine well until there are no clumps left.

Bring to a boil then turn the heat to low.

Stir frequently until the sauce thickens. This takes about 2 - 3 minutes.

Once the meatballs are done, transfer them into the sauce skillet and cover them with the sticky sauce.

Sprinkle some extra green onion and sesame seeds for garnishing. Enjoy!
