Cooking Steps
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- When hot, add peanuts to the dry pan. Toast, stirring, until golden, 3-4 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!)
- Transfer peanuts to a plate.
- Meanwhile, roughly chop cilantro.
- Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
- Combine pork, panko, half the cilantro, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper in a medium bowl. (TIP: If you prefer firmer meatballs, add an egg to the mixture!)
- Roll mixture into 14 equal-sized meatballs.
- Reheat the same pan (from step 1) over medium.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp oil, then meatballs. Cook, turning meatballs often, until browned all over and cooked through, 6-8 min.**
- Remove from heat to, then add soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, lime juice and lime zest.
- Toss meatballs gently, until glaze thickens slightly and meatballs are coated, 1 min.
- Transfer meatballs to a serving plate. Spoon any remaining glaze from the pan over top.
- Sprinkle cilantro and toasted peanuts over top.
- Serve lime wedges on the side, if desired.
