Preparation
Step 1
Make the rice: Cook rice according to package directions.
Step 2
Blend the sauce: Blend all sauce ingredients in a blender or food processor until smooth.
Step 3
Make the pickled veg: Toss your veggies with enough vinegar and oil to just barely coat. Season with salt and sugar. Voila – it’s a very low-key pickled vegetable salad.
Step 4
Cook the meatballs: Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add meatballs and most of the sauce. Sauté for 5-8 minutes, shaking the pan to move them around and coat them in sticky sauce until they are cooked through. (You can also cover the pan with a lid to speed up the cook time for the meatballs.)
Step 5
Assemble: Serve meatballs over rice with a scoop of the pickled veggies, mango, and a handful of cilantro. Spoon a little bit of extra sauce over the top. SO GOOD.

Chef's notes
To make this 100% vegan, replace the honey with brown sugar, agave, or maple syrup.
For Instant Pot rice:
1 cup white rice with 1 1/4 cups water, high pressure for 3 minutes, natural release for 15 minutes.
Can substitute regular meatballs with chicken or turkey meatballs.
