Asian Turkey Meatballs with Lime Sesame Dipping Sauce

I am making these today!! Hope you will, too.....
(serves 4 - 12 meatballs)

Meatballs:
1/4 cup panko bread crumbs
1&1/4 lbs. 93% leans ground turkey
1 large egg
1 t. fresh ginger, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 t. kosher salt
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
3 scallions, chopped
1 T. soy sauce (I use Ponzu Citrus Sauce*)
2 t. toasted* sesame oil

Dipping Sauce:
3 T. reduced sodium soy sauce or Ponzu*
1&1/2 t. toasted sesame oil
1&1/2 T. fresh lime juice
1&1/2 T. water
1 T. chopped fresh scallion

Preheat oven to 500. In a large bowl combine all the meatball ingredients. Gently mix with your hands until well combined. Shape meatballs 1/4 cup in size and transfer to a rimmed* baking sheet. Bake until cooked through and browned, about 15-18 min.
For the dipping sauce: mix the lime juice, water, soy sauce, and remaining sesame oil in a bowl. Add the scallions and set aside. Transfer the meatballs to a serving dish. Sir the sauce, then drizzle the meatballs with a little of the sauce. Serve the meatballs with the remaining sauce on the side.
