- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 egg beaten
- 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup Italian breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup bunch parsley finely chopped
- 1 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C)
Add all ingredients to a large bowl.
Using clean hands, gently fold mixture together until it looks uniform.
Use a small scoop to portion meatballs, then roll into balls and place on baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes.
Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before serving.
The easiest way to make sure the meatballs are consistent in size is to use a small cookie scoop to portion them.
OPTIONAL: Once all the meatballs are scooped, give them a quick roll to make them round & brown them in a few tablespoons of good olive oil in a screaming hot pan to get a nice caramelized crust on them.
