Baked Turkey Meatballs Recipe

Baked Turkey Meatballs Recipe

Total Time: 32 min.

Prep Time: 20 min.
Cooking Time: 12 min.
Yield: 8 servings, 3 meatballs each

Ingredients:
1 lb. raw 93% lean ground turkey
½ tsp. sea salt (or Himalayan salt)
½ tsp. ground black pepper
1 large eggwhite, lightly beaten
½ cup whole rolled oats (planko crumbs are good instead, if you don't have oats)
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 Tbsp. finely chopped fresh parsley
2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation:

1. Combine turkey, ½ tsp. salt, pepper, egg, oats, garlic, parsley, and cheese in a large bowl; mix well with clean hands.
2. Roll mixture into 24 1½-inch meatballs. (I fill two cookie sheets)
3. Place on cookie sheet (I cover the cookie sheet with foil and use a cooking spray on the foil to keep the meatballs from sticking. Or use parchment paper and no spray!)
4. Bake in oven at 375F degrees for 15 min.
