  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and brown sugar. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  2. Step 2: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  3. Step 3: Using your hands, form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Step 4: Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until they are cooked through and browned on the outside.
  5. Step 5: Serve the Korean BBQ-style meatballs warm, garnished with additional chopped green onions or sesame seeds if desired. Enjoy with rice or as an appetizer!

Notes

  • For optimal freshness, store leftover meatballs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days or freeze them for longer storage.
  • When reheating, pop the meatballs back in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes to regain their crispy exterior, or microwave them gently to avoid drying out.
  • These flavorful meatballs are perfect served over steamed rice, but you can also skewer them on toothpicks for a fun and easy appetizer at your next gathering.
  • To enhance the flavor, consider adding some crushed red pepper flakes to the meat mixture for a spicy kick, or drizzle a bit of extra sesame oil before serving for added richness.
