Sesame Ginger Meatball Sliders have a flavorful chicken or pork meatball served on a slider bun with mango slaw and spicy mayo
- 1 pound ground chicken or pork
- 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/3 cup sliced green onions
- 2 Tbsps soy sauce
- 2 Tbsps ginger paste
- 1 Tbsp garlic paste
- 1 Tbsp sesame seeds (plus more to sprinkle over top)
- 1 egg
- kosher salt, pepper
- 8 slider buns
- Toppings such as slaw, sriracha mayo, diced mango, lime wedges, picked red onions (recipe link in post above)
-
Put the ground chicken or pork, panko, carrots, green onions, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sesame seeds, egg, kosher salt, and pepper in a bowl. Gently fold and combine with your hands until evenly mixed.
-
Form into 8 meatballs and place on a baking sheet or casserole dish. The meatballs will be delicate which is normal. Sprinkle more sesame seeds over top and bake in a 400 degree oven for 27 to 32 minutes (chicken meatballs should be 165 degrees and pork should be 145 degrees).
-
Toast the slider buns and make the sliders with toppings of choice such as slaw, sriracha mayo, mango, lime wedges to squeeze over top, and/or pickled red onions.
Note: I got an Asian salad kit and mixed with sriracha mayo, diced mango, and lime juice plus topped the sliders with more sriracha mayo.
