11 min

4 servings

Sticky honey garlic meatballs are seriously delish as an appetizer or as a main dish over rice or noodles. Baked, tender and juicy in a sweet and sticky honey garlic sauce.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb (450 g) lean ground beef
  • 1 pkg Honey Garlic Meatball Seasoning, divided
  • 3⁄4 cup water
  • 1 tbsp honey

Preparation

  • In a large bowl, using a fork, combine beef and 2 tbsp seasoning. Form into 16 meatballs (about a scant 2 tbsp each).
  • Arrange in a single layer in Round Steamer or Multipurpose Steamer (it’s OK if they touch). Cover and microwave on high, for 4 min or until cooked.
  • Meanwhile, prepare sauce. In Wok or Sauté Pan, combine remaining seasoning, water, and honey. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat; simmer until sauce has thickened to your liking.
  • When meatballs are cooked, carefully drain and discard liquid from bottom of steamer. Add meatballs to wok; stir to coat with sauce. Serve with rice, if desired.
