Chicken makes great meatballs when dressed with a sweet and salty glaze. Are you ready? Serves 4 to 6 1 hour Prep Ingredients 1 cup soy sauce, preferably Japanese 1 cup mirin 1 cup sugar 2 tbsp. mizuame (Japanese sugar candy) 2 lb. ground chicken 2 tsp. kosher salt 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 1` bunch scallions, trimmed and minced vegetable oil, for greasing Instructions In a medium saucepan, bring the soy sauce, mirin, and sugar to a boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and cook until the liquid has reduced by one-third, about 20 minutes. Stir in the mizuame and cook until the mizuame dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let the glaze cool. In a large bowl, mix the ground chicken with the salt, pepper, scallions, and ginger until thoroughly combined. Form the meat into 20 oblong meatballs, about 1 1⁄2-oz. each, and place the meatballs on a lightly greased foil-lined baking sheet. Heat the broiler and broil the meatballs, turning and basting every 2 minutes with the glaze, until the meatballs are cooked through and dark golden brown, about 8 minutes.
