Lean Turkey Meatballs with Zucchini Noodles
Savor these juicy, lean turkey meatballs nestled atop a fresh bed of zucchini noodles. The combination offers a light yet satisfying dish with fragrant garlic, onion, and Italian herbs, perfect for a balanced meal any time of the day.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup finely chopped Onion
1 clove Garlic
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Using a spiralizer or vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles from the zucchini and set aside.
In a bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg white, chopped onion, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
Form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1-1.5 inches in diameter.
Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Sear the meatballs for 2-3 minutes on each side until lightly browned.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes until the meatballs are cooked through.
While the meatballs bake, briefly sauté the zucchini noodles in a separate pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, just until heated through. Avoid overcooking to maintain their crisp texture.
Plate the zucchini noodles and arrange the turkey meatballs on top. Garnish with extra Italian seasoning or fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.
