Slow Cooker Turkey Teriyaki Meatballs

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine turkey, breadcrumbs, ginger, garlic, half of the green onions, salt, and pepper.

Step 2

Form the ground turkey mixture into 2-inch balls.

Step 3

Optional browning step: In a large skillet or saute pan (or the base of your stovetop-friendly slow cooker), melt the ghee. Fry the meatballs for 2-3 minutes per side until browned, then transfer to slow cooker.

Step 4

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together all ingredients for the sauce. Pour onto the meatballs.

Step 5

Cook in slow cooker on high heat for 2-3 hours or on low for 4-5 hours.

Step 6

Garnish with sesame seeds and the remaining green onion.

Step 7

Serve alongside cauliflower rice or simple white rice (basmati is my favorite).
