TURKEY MEATBALLS

SERVES 8

INGREDIENTS

2 lb ground turkey

1 egg

1/3 cup chopped parsley

1 medium onion, grated

1 cup panko bread crumbs

1 egg

1 TBS Spice Tree Organics Mexico City Barbacoa blend

Salt to taste (we like 2 1/4 tsp)

Extra virgin olive oil, for cooking

1 medium onion and 1 medium green pepper, sliced (optional)

 

METHOD

- Combine all ingredients (except for oil and optional peppers and onions) in a bowl.  Mix by hand until ingredients are well incorporated but do not overmix.  Please turkey mixture in fridge one hour to get cool.  This makes meatball shaping easier and less messy!

- Shape meatballs. 

- Place olive oil in a skillet and heat.  Add meatballs to the skillet on medium high heat.  Allow to cook on one side for about 5 minutes or until light brown in color.  Flip all meatballs.  Let cook 3 minutes.  If adding sliced onions and peppers, add now over meatballs.  Place cover over skillet and continue to cook for 10 minutes or until meatballs cooked through.

- Serve alongside your favorite grain and veggies! Enjoy!
