Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking dish with parchment paper or grease it.
Mix ground turkey and remaining meatball ingredients with your hands until combined well. Mixture will be wet. Scoop balls of meatball mixture (about 1 1/2 tablespoons each) and place on baking sheet. It helps to use a cookie scoop here. Bake until cooked through, about 18-20 minutes.
While meatballs are baking make the sauce: In a small pot, whisk together the soy sauce, water, and cornstarch. Add the other sauce ingredients and turn the heat on and up to medium heat. Cook for a few minutes until mixture thickens. Remove from heat.
Transfer meatballs to a large bowl. Toss meatballs with sauce and garnish with more green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
