Combine all the ingredients for the meatballs in a bowl. I like to use my hands to simply mash everything together, almost like a dough.
Preheat your oven to 375 °F / 190 °C.
Then, roll out equally sized small meatballs, and put these on a baking sheet covered baking pan. This recipe will make around 20 meatballs, depending on their size.
Bake the turkey meatballs in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until they are cooked through. You can make sure that they are done by inserting a meat thermometer into the middle of the meatballs. Their internal temperature should read 165 °F / 74 °C.
Meanwhile, combine the ingredients for the honey sriracha glaze in a small pot, and stir while you bring it to a light simmer on medium heat. Leave it to simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, before you remove it from the heat and set it to the side.
When the meatballs are ready, remove them from the oven, and cover them with the honey sriracha glaze.
Optionally, you can add some toasted sesame seeds and diced scallions on top, then serve the honey sriracha meatballs with your favorite side dishes.

Only mix the meatball ingredients until they are just combined. Be careful not to overwork the meat, or they might be a little tough.
The meatballs can require a different baking time than suggested, based on how big they are and the temperature inside your oven. To check if they are done, you can cut a meatball in two and make sure that there’s no pink meat in the middle, or you can simply use a meat thermometer!
Honey sriracha meatballs can be stored in a refrigerator for up to 3 days, or frozen for up to 6 months. Defrost them in a refrigerator overnight, and reheat them in a microwave, oven, air fryer or skillet, and serve them warm.
