For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the meatball mixture. These meatballs are delicious served with a sweet chili sauce or a teriyaki glaze. Ground turkey can be substituted for ground chicken. To ensure even cooking, make sure the meatballs are uniformly sized. The meatballs can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking.
