Ingredients

1 pound (454 g) lean ground beef
1 egg beaten
1 teaspoon (4.93 ml) Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon (6 g) salt
1/2 teaspoon (2 g) garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon (1 g) ground black pepper
1/4 cup (59.15 ml) sriracha
3 tablespoons (44 ml) honey substitute or honey if you don’t mind the sugar
1 tablespoon (14 g) salted butter
2 teaspoons (9.86 ml) low-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon (5 ml) lemon juice

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
Mix together the first 6 ingredients in a mixing bowl until well combined. Form 1 1/2” meatballs.
Place the meatballs on the baking tray. Bake for 10 minutes, turning once halfway through cooking.
Meanwhile, mix together the sriracha, honey, butter, soy sauce, and lemon juice in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook for about 5 minutes, until the sauce has reduced and thickened slightly.
After the meatballs have cooked for 10 minutes, remove them from the oven. Transfer them to a bowl and toss with half the honey sriracha sauce.
Return them to the baking sheet and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, until the inside of the meatballs register 165°F on a meat thermometer.
Use the remaining sauce as a dipping sauce.

Notes

You can also cook these meatballs in the air fryer on 400°F, for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking.
