Serves 3
Total Time 35-40 minutes
Prep Time 10 minutes
Inactive Time 5-10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

For the Turkey Meatballs
1 pound ground turkey ​
½ cup Kikkoman® Gluten-Free Panko Bread Crumbs ​
1 large egg ​
2 tablespoons Kikkoman® Teriyaki Marinade & Sauce ​
½ teaspoon garlic powder ​
½ teaspoon onion powder ​
¼ teaspoon black pepper ​
1 tablespoon neutral oil (avocado or olive oil, for pan) ​​

For Serving
2 cups cooked white rice (jasmine or sushi rice preferred) ​
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 cup carrots, shredded ​
1 cup cucumbers, sliced (thin rounds or matchsticks) ​
¼ cup Kikkoman® Teriyaki Marinade & Sauce (for drizzling or glazing) ​
Optional: sliced green onions, for garnish

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (or air fryer to 375°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment or lightly grease air-fryer basket. ​
  2. Make the meatballs by mixing together ground turkey, bread crumbs, egg, teriyaki sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper in a
    medium bowl until just combined. Form into 16 small meatballs (about 1.5 tablespoons each). ​
  3. Cook the meatballs using your preferred method. If using an oven, bake for 15–18 minutes, flipping halfway, until internal temp reaches 165°F. If
    using an air fryer, cook for 10–12 minutes, shaking halfway through. If using a stovetop, heat oil in a skillet over medium, brown meatballs on all sides,
    then cover and cook for 5–7 more minutes until cooked through. ​
  4. To assemble the bowls, divide cooked rice between 3 bowls. Add meatballs, carrots, and cucumbers. Drizzle with more teriyaki and garnish with
    green onions if desired. ​
