Instructions

1

Bake the Meatballs

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Spread the frozen meatballs in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes until heated through and lightly browned.

2

Make the Glaze

While the meatballs bake, whisk together the honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, cornstarch, and two tablespoons of water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook while stirring for 3 to 4 minutes until the glaze thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.

3

Coat the Meatballs

Transfer the baked meatballs to a large bowl and pour the warm honey garlic glaze over them. Toss vigorously until every meatball is evenly and generously coated with the sticky glaze.
