Whether you love sweet and spicy meatballs for an appetizer or want to use them in a meal, these are easy to make and definitely yummy. Use beef or turkey meatballs and add a delicious sauce using honey, sriracha and soy sauce for that perfectly balanced flavor. I love to top them with green onions and sesame seeds too. So good!
Sweet and Spicy Meatballs Shopping List
Below are the items you will need to make the meatballs. I use my Crockpot for these so they have lots of time to simmer and let the flavors merge. You will need:
Frozen fully cooked beef meatballs (or turkey) Light brown sugar Honey Jalapeno ketchup Sriracha sauce Soy sauce Garlic, minced Green onions or chopped cilantro, optional
What to Serve with Sweet and Spicy Meatballs
Meatballs make a great addition to any buffet next to a charcuterie board or on your game day table, and they are so good to snack on.
That said, if you want to make them into a meal, here are a few ways to serve them.
Over rice – white rice makes a great base for these meatballs and balances out that extra kick! I make mine in the Instant Pot and it’s perfect every time! With green beans or broccoli – throw in some fresh veggies during the last 20-30 minutes of cooking and enjoy! In a bun – steam up some rolls or get fancy and make some Bao Buns for a dinner that is sure to please.
Don’t forget dessert! Finish off with a delicious fudge brownie or slice of heavenly pound cake! You can thank me later.
