Ingredients
Meatballs
- 1 lb Ground chicken
- ¼ cup Yellow onion
- ⅓ cup Green onion chopped
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 Eggs lightly beaten
- ¼ cup Teriyaki sauce
- ¼ teaspoon Black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon Garlic powder
Teriyaki Sauce
- ¾ cup Teriyaki sauce
- ½ cup Pure pineapple juice
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoon Water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, mix the ground chicken, yellow onion, green onion, almond flour, 1 beaten egg, ¼ cup teriyaki sauce, garlic powder and pepper. Prepare 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- With wet hands, roll mixture into balls, about 1-1.5 tablespoon and place on the baking sheet. Mixture will be very wet and that's normal! Feel free to add more almond flour if you need. Bake for 20 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Meanwhile, heat ¾ cup teriyaki sauce and ½ cup pineapple juice in large skillet. Mix cornstarch with water in a small bowl until fully dissolved. Then add it to sauce to thicken.
- Once sauce is boiling, bring down to simmer. Let the sauce thicken a bit, then add the baked meatballs and toss in sauce. Top with green onions. Enjoy!
