Dumpling Meatballs With Peanut Sauce & Quick Pickled Cucumbe

• 份量: Makes 6 servings (make 2

食材

2 lbs ground chicken (breast or thigh, thigh preferred)

3 green onions, thinly sliced

1/3 cup cilantro, finely chopped

2 tb freshly grated ginger (or 2 tsp ground ginger)

3 cloves garlic, mashed

2 tb toasted sesame oil

2 tb fish sauce

1/2 cup panko bread crumbs

1 egg

1 tsp kosher salt

1 tsp ground black pepper

Peanut sauce

3/4 cup creamy peanut butter

1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce

3 tb maple syrup

1/4 cup rice vinegar

3 cloves garlic

2 tb sriracha

2-3 tb water, if needed to thin

Quick pickled cucumbers/onions

2 Persian cucumbers, sliced

1/4 red onion, thinly sliced

2 tb rice vinegar

Pinch salt

First, make the sauce. In a small blender, add all of your ingredients for the sauce. Blend until completely smooth. Set aside. Next, make the meatballs. In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients. Roll them into balls, forming 24 large meatballs—or you can make them bigger or smaller, depending on your preference. If your meat is sticky, just wet the palms of your hands. For air fryer—400F for 12 minutes. Depending on your air fryer basket size, you will likely need to work in batches. If using the oven, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and bake at 400F for 25-30 minutes or until they are cooked through (165F internal temperature). To make the pickled cucumbers and onions, slice the cucumbers and onions very thin. Add to a bowl and toss with rice vinegar and a pinch of salt. Now serve your meal as desired. #dumplings #meatballs
