How to Make Spicy Hoisin Meatballs
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground chicken, 1 large egg, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup finely chopped onion, 2 finely chopped Thai chilies (or to taste), 2 cloves minced garlic, and 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce. Season generously with salt and pepper. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
- Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the meatballs in batches for 5-7 minutes per side, ensuring they are cooked through. Remove meatballs and set aside.
- Add 1 inch piece of ginger (minced) and 2 cloves minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Pour in 1/2 cup chicken broth and the remaining 2 tablespoons of hoisin sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Return the meatballs to the skillet, ensuring they are coated in the sauce.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the meatballs are cooked through.
- Serve the Spicy Hoisin Chicken Meatballs over noodles (optional) garnished with chopped green onions.
