Heating it up in the microwave was a happy accident. Optional: you can either use the sauce cold or heat it up quickly in the microwave.Cover and set in fridge so we can use it when the meatballs are done.Check the consistency and if it needs it, add a little more water a small spoonful at a time until its a good drizzle consistency.

Mix together mayo, sour cream, honey, smoked paprika, garlic powder, sriracha, soy sauce, and water.1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika- adds a little smokiness that I love.1 teaspoon honey- a good way to balance the spicy kick and round out the sauce.1 tablespoon sriracha- you can add more or less depending on spice level preference.I like to add enough to create an easy drizzle consistency 2-3 tablespoons water- to thin out the sauce a bit.5 tablespoons sour cream (I use light sour cream).3 tablespoons mayo (I use dukes mayo made with olive oil to make it a little lighter).Warning: you might want to put this sauce on everything. This recipe for Firecracker Meatballs is an Asian flavor inspired meatball packed with green onion, ginger, garlic, sriracha, panko breadcrumbs, and a little soy sauce too! You can either dip or cover the meatballs with a super yummy spicy Firecracker sauce that kind of reminds me of “yum yum sauce” with a little extra flair. Just like the hello fresh version we love this recipe pair with rice and my favorite Air Fryer Green Beans! What are Firecracker Meatballs? These Firecracker Chicken Meatballs are so very easy to make and the sauce to pair them with takes seconds to whisk together too! I originally made them in the oven just like the original recipe, but as the summer months crept in and we still craved’m I decided an Air Fryer method was a must too! So that’s what I did and it’s become one of our favorite meals to make! Meal kits aren’t a normal thing for us so I just filed the recipe away as a fave and knew that if we wanted it on a normal basis that I would need to give it the ol’ skinny(ish) dish twist. Truth, I wasn’t super excited about them. One of the weeks we received the meal kit box, Eric chose these Firecracker Meatballs. Last year we were gifted hello fresh meals from a friend.
