Ingredients
1 pound ground beef (round or chuck)
1/2 cup finely crushed Ritz crackers (12 crackers)
1/2 cup chopped scallions
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Directions
1
Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients and use your hands to gently mix.
2
Shape the meat into 12 golf-ball-size rounds (about 2 inches in diameter), and arrange on a greased rimmed baking sheet.
3
Bake until golden and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Serve warm.
Notes
Leftover meatballs freeze well and can be reheated in the oven at 375 degrees until warmed through (about 20 minutes).
To make the Ritz crumbs, place the crackers in a resealable plastic bag and lightly crush them with the back of a wooden spoon or measuring cup.
