Follow these simple steps to create Coconut Gochujang Chicken Meatballs:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Prepare the Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, coconut milk, breadcrumbs, gochujang, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Form the Meatballs: Using your hands, shape the mixture into ping-pong-sized meatballs and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Leave a bit of space between each meatball.
4. Bake: Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through and browned on the outside. You can check doneness by cutting one open to ensure there’s no pink inside.
5. Prepare the Sauce (Optional): For extra flavor, mix some additional coconut milk and gochujang in a small saucepan over low heat until smooth and warmed. Pour this over the meatballs just before serving.
6. Garnish: Once the meatballs are done, garnish with chopped green onions and fresh cilantro, if desired.
