Chinese Chicken Meatballs


I just through this together real quick and honestly... could be my new favorite food. They are delicious!!

1/2# ground chicken or turkey (I used chicken)
2 tbsp dried cilantro
1/4 c panko bread crumbs
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp veg oil
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 egg
Mix all ingredients together and roll into 1" balls
Place on cookie sheet and cook on 400* for 25 mins
Serve with dipping sauce, recipe below
1/4c soy sauce
1/4c dark brown sugar
1/2 tsp fresh grated ginger
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1-2 tsp sriracha, depending on how spicy you like it (i like it spiiiiicy!)

The only reason I used the Lake Shore seasoning, was because I need to go grocery shopping... In place of the seasoning, you can use sliced scallions. I also would have used fresh cilantro if I had some on hand.

Enjoy!

Office Overhaul

I'm really excited to redo our home office. Currently, it has an Asian theme... dark maroon walls, Asian decor... we call it the "Hotel" because its so dark in there, you can sleep-in forever!

So here is my inspiration board... everything is falling into place and I get more anxious every time I find a new item for the room.
