Turkey Meatballs Baked With Parmesan Cheese Food

THE BEST TURKEY MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and drizzle the olive oil and canola oil in an even layer over the paper.
• Pour the breadcrumbs into a large mixing bowl, pour the milk over top and stir to fully moisten the breadcrumbs. Add the remaining ingredients to the mixing bowl and mix with your hands just until combined.
• Scoop 1/4-cupfuls of meatball mixture and place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet; you should have 12 meatballs. Gently roll them into balls. Bake until bottoms are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F and continue to bake for 15 to 20 minutes more until the meatballs are cooked through.

BAKED TURKEY MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and coat with nonstick spray.
• In a large mixing bowl, add the cheese, bread crumbs, herbs, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, pepper, and red pepper flakes and stir well to combine. Add the turkey.
• In a small bowl, beat the egg, then add it to the meat mixture. With a fork or your fingers, mix just until combined, being careful not to compact the meat.
• With a scoop or spoon, scoop the meat and shape into 1 1/2-inch meatballs. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet. You will have about 20 meatballs total.
• Brush the tops of the meatballs with the olive oil.
• Bake for 15 minutes, or until the meatballs reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. As an alternate way to check, a meatball in the center of the baking sheet should be fully cooked through when cut in half.
• While the meatballs cook, warm the sauce and any other items you'd like to serve them with (pasta, hoagie buns, rice, etc.). Serve the meatballs hot, topped with the sauce, cheese, herbs, and any other additions.

TURKEY MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray a rimmed 18 by -13-inch, preferably dark non-stick coated, baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
• In a large mixing bowl toss together bread crumbs with 3 Tbsp milk. Let rest a few minutes. If crumbs seem dry moisten with another 1 Tbsp milk. Toss mixture with a fork to separate clumps.
• Add parmesan, onion, garlic, parsley, basil and oregano and toss mixture.
• Add in ground turkey. Sprinkle salt and pepper evenly over. Break egg yolk and drizzle over turkey (this will help it end up more evenly distributed).
• Toss mixture with clean hands until ingredients are evenly incorporated.
• Divide meatball mixture into 16 equal portions (about 40g or a little over 2 Tbsp each).
• Roll into balls (if mixture is a little sticky dipping hands in water before rolling can be helpful).
• Align meatballs on prepared baking sheet spacing evenly apart. Brush tops and sides with olive oil.
• Bake in preheated oven 10 minutes. Check bottoms of meatballs, if they are golden brown turn to opposite side, if not let them continue to sit upright and brown on bottom. Bake through to 165 in center of meatballs (check temp of some in center and edges), about 5 minutes longer.
• Meanwhile heat marinara sauce over low heat in a large saucepan, covered.
• Toss cooked meatballs with marinara sauce and serve warm garnished with more parsley, basil (optional), and parmesan.
