SPICY KOREAN CHICKEN MEATBALLS RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat a large pan to medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and heat.
• Add celery, onion and peppers. Cook about 5 minutes to soften.
• Add garlic and cook 1 minute, stirring.
• Remove from heat and add contents to a mixing bowl. Cool slightly.
• Add the ground chicken, panko, egg, gochujang, ginger powder and chili flakes. Add salt and pepper to your tastes.
• Hand mix the meat mixture until everything is combined, but do not over mix. If you over mix with your hands, the meatballs can become mealy.
• Form the meat mixture into 1-inch sized meatballs. You should get about 16 meatballs, about an ounce each or so.
• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat the pan again to medium heat and add remaining olive oil. Brown the meatballs 3-4 minutes, rolling them a bit to brown all of the sides.
• Transfer the pan to the oven and bake the meatballs for 10 minutes, or until the chicken meatballs are cooked through.
• While the chicken meatballs are cooking, add the pepper jelly, gochujang, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and salt and pepper to a small pot. Heat gently, stirring, until it is well combined.
• Pour the gochujang sauce / glaze over the chicken meatballs, or you can brush it on.
• Sprinkle with chili flakes, sesame seeds and fresh parsley and serve.

KOREAN GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk together the soy, vinegar, honey, chili paste, ginger and garlic in a bowl and divide the mixture in half. Add 1 half to a large baking dish, then add the chicken, turning to coat. Cover and let the meat marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or up to 8 hours. Add the green onions, sesame oil, black pepper and sesame seeds to the remaining half of the mixture. Reserve it as a dipping sauce for the finished chicken.
• Light a grill, making sure to include a zone of indirect heat.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and put it over the charcoal, skin side down. Grill until the skin is golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes. Relocate the chicken to the indirect heat zone, lower the cover and grill until cooked through. Remove the chicken from the grill to a cutting board and carve. Arrange the chicken on a serving platter and serve wrapped in tortillas, if desired, with dipping sauce on the side.

ASIAN-STYLE CHICKEN MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of the sambal, the soy sauce, ginger, chicken, water chestnuts, garlic, scallions, cilantro and 2 tablespoons water (this will keep the meatballs really moist!). Use your hands to squish the mixture together until combined.
• Form a little tester patty and then cook and taste to make sure the chicken is really delicious. If the seasoning isn't just right, add a little more soy sauce or a sprinky-dink of salt. When you're confident the meatball mix is perfectly seasoned, form the meatballs.
• Roll the meatballs in the peanuts, and place on a small baking sheet. Roast until meatballs are cooked through, 12 minutes.
• In a small bowl, add the mayonnaise and the remaining 2 tablespoons sambal. Stir to combine and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Serve the meatballs hot with the chili-mayonnaise.

• Add sesame oil, soy sauce, broth and egg to water chestnut paste.

• Heat large skillet, add enough vegetable oil to cover the bottom of the pan (to help prevent sticking).
• Using hands, or a small scoop, form a ball of meat about the size of a golf ball, place in the hot skillet.
• The meat mixture is very wet and loose, it will not hold it's shape well, so keep the balls small or they will flatten as they cook.
• Saute meatballs about 2 minutes or until browned on bottom, turn gently to an uncooked side, and continue cooking.
• Keep turning the meatballs as they cook, so that all sides are browned evenly.
• Cut a meatball open to test for doneness by verifying that it is cooked through to the center.
• Remove cooked meatballs and keep warm until all are done.
• Serve plain, or with your favorite dipping sauce.

WANJAKUK (KOREAN MEATBALL SOUP)

Steps:

• Put the tofu in a clean cloth and squeeze out as much moisture as you can, then tip the tofu into a mixing bowl and mash it with a fork. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Cut 2 of the spring onions crosswise into very thin rings, reserving the other 2 for the stock.
• Add the garlic and sliced spring onions to the bowl with the tofu and then add the ground beef, soy sauce, sesame oil and sesame seeds. Mix well and roll into about 20 meatballs - about the size of a walnut. At this point, you could refrigerate the meatballs until ready to cook.
• Put the stock in a large pan. Cut the remaining spring onions into 2 inch lengths. Peel the ginger and cut it into thin slices. Add the ginger and spring onions to the stock and bring it to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer gently for 8-10 minutes. Salt the stock to your taste. Return to a boil to add meatballs.
• Put the flour onto a plate and beat the egg lightly in a bowl. Roll each meatball first in the flour and then the egg and then drop into the boiling soup. If the soup falls out of the boil stage as you are adding meatballs, this is ok. Once all meatballs have been added, return soup to a boil and then serve.

• Fry meatballs in the hot oil, working in batches if needed, until well browned and no longer pink in the centers, 3 to 5 minutes.
