Vietnamese Meatball Salad
  1. Preheat the oven to 350° F.

  2. In a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients except the oil in the meatball mix. Mix thoroughly to combine, then scoop each meatball with a small ice cream-scoop to portion each meatball. Place scooped meatballs onto a parchment-lined sheet tray and once done place in the fridge for at least one hour or best overnight, covered.

  3. In a bowl, whisk together all the vinaigrette ingredients until combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then set aside.

  4. Preheat a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of cooking oil for one minute. Place the meatballs 1-inch apart from each other in the pan and sear for 1 minutes per side, making sure to sear at least three sides. Remove to a clean sheet tray and finish baking these in the oven for 5 - 8 minutes.

  5. While the meatballs bake, toss the salad ingredients together in a bowl with the vinaigrette. Taste for final seasoning then plate the salad in an oval dish. Arrange meatballs on one side and salad on the other with fresh cilantro, lime wedges, and optional jalapeno slices in the middle. Enjoy!
