Ingredients
- avocado oil or canola oil for greasing the baking sheet
- 1 egg
- ¼ cup very finely chopped yellow onion
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ cup panko bread crumbs
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pound ground turkey*
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450° F. Grease a rimmed baking sheet with avocado oil or canola oil.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the egg, onion, garlic, panko, Parmesan cheese, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Stir with a fork to mix.
- Add the ground turkey and mix until just combined.
- Use your hands to shape the meat mixture into 1 ½-inch meatballs. Place on the greased baking sheet.
- Bake meatballs for 10-14 minutes, until they are cooked through. Meatballs are done when they register 165° F in the center when measured with an instant read thermometer.
Notes
- For best results, use ground turkey with a little bit of fat in it, such as 93% lean. Using 99% lean ground turkey may make the meatballs dry.
- Baked meatballs may be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
