Instructions
Heat the Meatballs
Place the frozen meatballs in a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat. Add a splash of water, cover the pan, and heat the meatballs for 8 to 10 minutes stirring occasionally until they are heated all the way through.
Make the Glaze
In a small bowl whisk together the honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, and sriracha until well combined. Taste the glaze and adjust the sriracha level to your desired spice preference before adding it to the pan.
Coat and Caramelize
Pour the honey garlic glaze over the heated meatballs in the skillet. Toss everything together to coat evenly and cook over medium-high heat for 6 to 8 minutes stirring frequently until the sauce thickens and becomes sticky and glossy.
Garnish and Serve
Transfer the glazed meatballs to a serving bowl or keep them in the skillet for a rustic presentation. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top and serve immediately with toothpicks on the side for easy grabbing.
