1/4 C. Panko crumbs
1 1/4 lbs. lean ground turkey
1 egg
1 tbsp. ginger, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 C. chopped fresh cilantro
3 scallions, chopped (I used a small onion)
1 tbsp. low sodium soy sauce
2 tsp. sesame oil

Lime Dipping Sauce:
4 tbsp. low sodium soy sauce
1 tsp. sesame oil
2 tbsp. fresh lime juice
2 tbsp. water
1 chopped scallion

Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
Mix ground turkey, panko, egg, salt, scallions, ginger, cilantro, 1 tbsp. soy sauce, and 2 tsp oil and mix with your hands until combined well. Shape 1/4 C. meat mixture into a ball and transfer to a baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Repeat with remaining mixture. Bake until cooked through, about 15 minutes.

For the dipping sauce, mix together lime juice, water, soy sauce, and sesame oil in a bowl. Add scallions. Drizzle meatballs with 1 tbsp. sauce. Serve meatballs over rice. I used the remainder of the sauce to drizzle on the rice.
