In a medium pot, combine all ingredients for soy glaze and bring to a boil. Remove from heat.
Combine the ground chicken, green onions, ginger, sesame oil, and ¼ cup of the soy glaze in a bowl.
Roll about 1-inch meatballs, then skewer meatballs on a skewer, leaving a bit of room between each.
Note: If you’re having issues forming meatballs, add panko breadcrumbs to the mixture until the meatballs hold their shape.
Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Sear meatballs on skewers and flip when golden brown.
Brush the remaining glaze on the skewers evenly and cook a few more minutes, turning and evenly coating skewers with glaze.
