Instructions

Preheat the oven to 500ºF and lightly spray a mini-muffin pan or baking dish with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, mix the milk and panko breadcrumbs, then let it sit for 5 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, garlic, ginger, scallions, soy sauce, salt, pepper, and soaked breadcrumbs. Mix thoroughly using your hands and shape into balls about 2 to 3 tablespoons each.
Arrange the meatballs in the prepared pan and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until fully cooked. While the meatballs bake, prepare the sauce.

Notes

For extra flavor, feel free to add more crushed red pepper flakes to taste.
Make sure to let the soaked breadcrumbs sit to allow for better moisture retention in the meatballs.
