Pork Teriyaki Meatballs

with Carrots and Zucchini over Rice

Do you love meatballs but aren’t sure how to take them beyond the usual? Say hello to bulgogi, a Korean-style sauce that knows what’s up. Based around soy sauce, it has savory complexity for sophisticated palates, plus just enough sweetness to round things out. In this recipe, it’s used to glaze pork meatballs, giving them an outer layer of extra flavor that pairs perfectly with the sesame-accented rice, carrots, and zucchini.

Instructions

Prep
1

Wash and dry all produce. Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut crosswise into thin half-moons. Peel and mince ginger until you have 1 TBSP. Quarter lime. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.

Form Meatballs and Cook Rice
2

In a medium bowl, combine pork, panko, ginger, scallion whites, and 1 TBSP teriyaki sauce (2 TBSP for 4 servings). Season with salt and pepper (we used ½ tsp kosher salt—use 1 tsp for 4 servings). Shape into 1-inch balls. Bring rice and 1¼ cups salted water (2½ cups for 4 servings) to a boil in a small pot. Once boiling, cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until tender, about 15 minutes.

Cook Zucchini
3

Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat (use a nonstick pan if you have one). Add zucchini and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until just tender, 4-6 minutes. Turn off heat; transfer to a second medium bowl.

Cook Carrots and Brown Meatballs
4

Heat another drizzle of oil in same pan over medium-high heat. Add carrots; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until tender, 3-4 minutes. Add to bowl with zucchini, then toss with half the sesame oil (save the rest for step 6). Set aside. Heat a large drizzle of oil in same pan over medium-high heat. Add meatballs and cook, turning, until browned all over, 4-6 minutes.

Simmer Sauce
5

Add remaining teriyaki sauce to pan with meatballs. Bring to a simmer, then cover pan and reduce heat to medium low. (TIP: If your pan doesn’t have a lid, cover with aluminum foil.) Steam until meatballs are cooked through, about 5 minutes. Turn off heat.

Finish and Serve
6

Fluff rice with a fork; stir in remaining sesame oil and a squeeze of lime juice. Divide between plates and top with veggies and meatballs. Drizzle with remaining sauce from pan and sriracha (to taste). Garnish with sesame seeds and scallion greens. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side for squeezing over.
