Category: Main Dish
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

INGREDIENTS 1 pound lean ground turkey
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 cup dry Italian bread crumbs
1 egg
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil 1 tablespoon dried
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh flat leaf parsley 1 tablespoon dried
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic pd or two cloves smashed
If you want more of an Italian taste, add a little ground fennel seed.

DIRECTIONS Pre-heat your oven to 375 degrees.

In a large bowl, combine ground turkey with ricotta cheese, bread crumbs, egg, basil, parsley, salt, and pepper.
Use your hands to mix all the ingredients together.
Divide the meat mixture into 18 meatballs.
Heat a large non stick skillet to medium-high heat and add a little oil.
Brown the meatballs for a few minutes on each side. You may need to brown the meatballs in batches.
The goal here is not to cook them entirely, you just want to brown them. Oil a large pan and transfer the meatballs to the pan. Bake the meatballs in the oven for about 15 minutes, or until done.
