Mala Spiced Meatballs with Sichuan Chili Crisp Glaze… juicy, tender, flavor-packed meatballs tossed in the most irresistible sweet, sticky & spicy glaze. Served with lots of crunchy snow peas over a bed of steamed rice.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. In a bowl, combine the beef, white parts of the green onion, garlic, ginger, Mala Spice Mix, almond flour and egg. Using your hands, mix until combined. Form into equal-sized, small meatballs, roughly the size of golf balls, and transfer to a tray.
2. Preheat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat. Add the avocado oil and heat until shimmering. Add the meatballs and cook until browned, around 4 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until browned, around 4 more minutes. Transfer the meatballs to a bowl and discard all of the rendered fat.
3. Wipe the pan clean and return it to a medium heat. Add the coconut aminos, Fly By Jing Sichuan Chili Crisp, rice vinegar, honey and sesame oil. Cook, stirring, until the sauce has reduced by ¼ in volume, around 3 minutes. Return the meatballs to the pan along with the snow peas. Toss everything to coat and cook until the snow peas are slightly softened but still crisp, around 3 minutes.
4. Transfer to a serving platter, garnish with sesame seeds and reserved green parts of the green onions. Serve with steamed rice, if desired.
