Flavorful, juicy, and easy to make, these Teriyaki Turkey Meatballs are the perfect weeknight meal, meal prep, or party appetizer. The meatballs are easily baked in the oven and then tossed in a homemade teriyaki sauce.
Heat the oven to 375°F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, egg, panko, parmesan, and olive oil.
Using a spatula or hands, mix until just combined.
Using a cookie scoop or a large spoon, scoop up 1½ tablespoons worth of mixture and gently roll it into a ball. Place on a lined sheet pan. Continue until you’ve rolled all of the ground turkey mixture.
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until the meatballs have reached an internal temperature of 165°F/73°C.
For the Teriyaki Sauce:
Add all the ingredients to a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat then reduce the heat to medium and let it reduce for around 8 to 10 minutes until it’s thickened to your liking, stirring frequently.
For the Assembly:
Once the meatballs are done, toss them in the teriyaki sauce. Feel free to garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.
