Ingredients:
1 (8 oz) can sliced water chestnuts, drained and cut in half
1 egg
3 Tbs. soy sauce
1/2 c. green onion (green part only), chopped
1/4 c. bread crumbs
3 Tbs. fresh chopped cilantro
2 tsp. grated lime peel
2 tsp. grated fresh ginger
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp. salt and fresh cracked pepper
1 1/2 lb. ground turkey, lean
(Sweet and Sour sauce for dipping)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine the egg, soy sauce, and the next 9 ingredients with your hands or a spatula. Take about 1-2 Tbs. of the meat mixture in your hand, and place a water chestnut piece in the center. Fold the turkey around the water chestnut. Roll slightly if you need to round it out. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Repeat until all of the meatballs are made. Bake for 13-15 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving, or keep on warm in a slow cooker or food warmer.
(Makes roughly 30 meatballs, I doubled the recipe for the party to make 60-70. Each meatball is 1 WW point each. or 3 meatballs for 2 WW points.)
