Keto Thai Meatballs
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons coconut aminos
1 tablespoon red curry paste
2 to 3 dashes of fish sauce
Grated zest of 1 lime
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1/4 cup minced green onions
1 teaspoon grated or minced garlic
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon ginger powder
1 pound ground pork
1 pound ground chicken, preferably dark meat for the best flavor
FOR GARNISH (OPTIONAL)
Chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Sesame seeds
Sliced green onions
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the coconut aminos, red curry paste, fish sauce, lime zest, cilantro, green onions, garlic, salt, and ginger powder. Stir to mix well.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken and pork and mix well with your hands. Add the marinade and use your hands to mix it with the meat until well combined. Form the meat mixture into twenty-four meatballs (about 1 1/3ounces each) and place on a rimmed baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until cooked through.
Remove the meatballs from the oven and garnish with cilantro, sesame seeds, and green onions, if desired.
