Ingredients

Scale

1 pound Certified Angus Beef ® ground beef, 80% to 85% lean

1/4 cup Panko-style bread crumbs

1/4 cup whole milk

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon finely minced fresh ginger

1 tablespoon garlic, minced

4 tablespoons brown sugar, divided

11/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce

1 bunch scallions, whites and greens separated, thinly sliced

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil

1 (14-ounce) bag shredded slaw mix

Instructions

1. Prepare Meatballs:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine bread crumbs, milk, 1 tablespoon ginger, garlic, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, salt, pepper, and 2 teaspoons soy sauce. Sit for 5 minutes to allow bread crumbs to soak in liquids. Add beef and scallion whites; mix to combine all ingredients. Portion beef into 12 balls about the size of a golf ball; refrigerate for 10 minutes.

2. Preheat Air Fryer:

  • Preheat air fryer to 350°F (175°C). In a medium mixing bowl, make the sesame dressing by combining remaining 1 teaspoon ginger, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil; whisk to combine, set aside.

3. Cook Meatballs:

  • Arrange meatballs in air fryer basket, so they aren’t touching each other. Air fry for 12 minutes or until reaching an internal temperature of 155°F (68°C).

4. Prepare Slaw:

  • While meatballs cook, combine slaw mix and scallion greens with sesame dressing.

5. Serve:

  • Serve meatballs with sesame slaw.

Notes

Serve with steamed rice or cauliflower rice for a complete meal.

Garnish with sesame seeds and additional sliced scallions if desired.
