Asian Style Chicken Meatballs are sticky, sweet and healthy. This is a great appetizer for game day or a fancy party. Eat them as a Meatball lettuce wrap and you have a full dinner. It also so versatile, you can serve them on skewers, or in lettuce leaves or just keep them warm in a crockpot/slow cooker and let everyone spoon them out. However you decide to serve them, I promise they will be a gigantic hit!
