Ingredients
  

For the Meatballs:

1 lb ground beef (80/20 blend for juiciness)

1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs

2 green onions, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon ginger, grated

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 egg, beaten

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon salt

For the Spicy Mayo Dip:

1/2 cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons Sriracha (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon rice vinegar

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon honey

1 tablespoon water (to thin out dip, optional)

Garnish:

Thinly sliced green onions

Sesame seeds

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Prepare the Meatball Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, panko breadcrumbs, chopped green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, beaten egg, black pepper, and salt. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

      Shape the Meatballs: Using your hands, roll the meat mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.

        Bake: Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until they’re fully cooked through and browned on the outside.

          Prepare the Spicy Mayo Dip: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Sriracha, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, and water (if needed). Adjust the level of spice by adding more Sriracha if desired.

            Garnish the Meatballs: Once the meatballs are out of the oven, let them cool slightly. Then, sprinkle the tops with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for a fresh finish.

              Serve: Serve the meatballs warm with the spicy mayo dip on the side for dipping. Enjoy your delicious Korean BBQ meatballs!
