Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Position your oven rack in the top slot.
  2. Arrange sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts on a greased baking sheet, drizzle with sesame oil, and sprinkle with salt. Roast for about 15 minutes.
  3. In a small bowl, soak panko bread crumbs in milk for 5 minutes. In a large bowl, mix soaked panko, ground beef, scallion whites, garlic, ginger, salt, and gochujang or sriracha. Form 20-22 meatballs.
  4. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Place meatballs on the empty side, drizzle with sesame oil, and bake for 14-16 minutes or until cooked through.

  6. Coat the cooked meatballs in BBQ sauce and broil for 2-3 minutes until bubbly and glazed.
