Here’s a twist on your standard meatballs for National Meatball Day… No frying involved minimal fuss; they are baked until golden and come together super quickly and easily for the perfect mid-week dinner.

Marinated for only 20 minutes with chopped shallots, ginger, garlic, fish sauce, spring onions, lime juice, lemongrass, mint, coriander, breadcrumbs, and of course, my favourite Linghams Chill Sauce @linghamsuk. I used a mix of both the ‘Ginger & Garlic’ and the ‘Hot’ flavour for a real kick. My secret here is to use a mix of chicken thighs and chicken breast, which makes these meatballs extra succulent and juicy.
