Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Gently mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Parmesan, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until just combined — don't overwork. Roll into 24 uniform balls (about 1.5 inches) and arrange on a foil-lined baking sheet.
2
Bake at 400°F for 18–20 minutes until browned and cooked through (160°F internal).
3
While meatballs bake, make the glaze: combine honey, soy sauce, and garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer 3–4 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and stir in butter and red pepper flakes.
4
Transfer baked meatballs to a bowl and pour the honey garlic glaze over them. Toss to coat every meatball in the sticky, sweet-savory glaze. Serve over rice with sesame seeds and green onions.
