Salt & pepper, to taste
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Mix meatball ingredients except for the sweet chili sauce all together in a large mixing bowl until well combined.
  3. Place 1" meatballs on a greased or lined baking sheet and bake in preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until internal temperature of meatballs is at least 165°F.
  4. While meatballs are cooking, mix together slaw dressing ingredients: rice vinegar, mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, salt & pepper.
  5. Toss together the coleslaw mix, basil, mint, cilantro & scallions with the slaw dressing, & set aside for assembly.
  6. Once meatballs have reached the correct internal temperature, remove them from the oven & toss them in the sweet chili sauce. (You can place back in the oven to help set the sauce a little more, but it's not necessary.)
