Orange Glazed Ginger Meatballs over Jasmine Rice
Orange Glazed Ginger Meatballs over Jasmine Rice – Delicious weeknight dinner that came together in less than 20 minutes! We have all agreed that this is one of our favorite meals.
Orange Glazed Ginger Meatballs over Jasmine Rice came together when we had some ground beef in the fridge one night and we wanted something different but quick. Sometimes those can be the best meals. So we grabbed the ground beef, some ponzu sauce which is like soy sauce but much better in my opinion. It is a fruitier sauce. It is a citrus based sauce so it goes well with this dish and something we always have in the fridge.
Orange Glazed Ginger Meatballs over Jasmine Rice came together so quick!
We mixed the beef with some bread crumbs, minced garlic and ginger and an egg. then cooked them a few minuted in some olive oil. Then we added some thinly sliced carrots, cooked them for a few more minutes then added the chopped bok choy. I would have added mushrooms if I had them in the fridge.
