A mixture of sriracha, honey, and ground coriander create a sweet-and-spicy glaze that take these already-scrumptious meatballs to extreme deliciousness. Better yet, thanks to the magic of the broiler, there is no oil splattering around the stove as the meatballs brown. These crowd-pleasers make for a great party appetizer, but if you're inspired to serve them for a weeknight dinner (and we wouldn't blame you one bit), the recipe can easily be cut in half. To make it a meal, serve with warm pita or couscous, hummus, and some crudité. Ingredients .6666 cup honey ½ cup sriracha 1 tablespoon plus ½ tsp. ground coriander, divided 1 tablespoon plus ½ tsp. kosher salt, divided 2 large eggs ½ cup packed fresh-leaf parsley leaves, chopped, plus more for serving 1 small shallot, grated (2 Tbsp.) 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 2 pounds ground lamb ½ cup panko Directions Preheat broiler with rack 6 inches from heat. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Whisk honey, sriracha, and ½ teaspoon each coriander and salt in a medium bowl until smooth. Stir eggs, parsley, shallot, oil, mustard, and remaining 1 tablespoon each coriander and salt in a large bowl until combined. Add lamb and panko; mix using your hands until well combined. Form mixture into 1-inch balls (about 1 heaping tablespoon each). Arrange on prepared baking sheet as you go. Broil meatballs, flipping halfway through, until browned, about 8 minutes. Heat a large skillet over medium. Add honey mixture; cook, stirring occasionally, until bubbling and slightly thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer meatballs to skillet. Cook meatballs, stirring often, until sauce thickens slightly and meatballs are glazed, about 3 minutes. Top with more parsley. Keep warm, covered, over low for up to 15 minutes, or place in a slow cooker on warm to serve. Rate it Print
