Ingredients

Additional

  • 1 teaspoon sesame seed
  • 2 cups vegetables
  • 2 cups jasmine rice

Sauce

  • 2 teaspoons light soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dark soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon oyster sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch

Chicken Meatballs

  • 1 ground chicken
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 piece fresh ginger, peeled and minced
  • 1/2 onion, finely minced
  • 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sake
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup green onions

Directions

Step 1
Combine ground chicken, garlic, ginger, onion, 1 tablespoon light soy sauce, sake, egg, panko, and green onions in a bowl. Gently mix and form into 1-inch meatballs. Place shaped meatballs onto a parchment lined tray.

Step 2
For sauce, whisk together 2 teaspoons light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, honey, oyster sauce, water, and cornstarch in a bowl; set aside.

Step 3
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Using a spider or slotted spoon, carefully lower chicken meatballs into boiling water – you may have to do this in batches. Cook until meatballs float to the top, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove meatballs with a spider or slotted spoon.

Step 4
Heat sesame oil in a wok. Add chicken meatballs, and cook until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Pour sauce ingredients into the wok. Add the mixed vegetables, toss to mix. Cook until vegetables are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.

Step 5
Place 1/2 cup cooked jasmine rice in each bowl or on each plate. Add cooked vegetables and chicken meatballs. Serve immediately.
