INGREDIENTS
6 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 large Egg
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 medium Zucchini
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Basil & Parsley)
2 Garlic cloves
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg, whole wheat breadcrumbs, minced garlic, chopped fresh herbs, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix gently until well-combined.
Form the turkey mixture into small meatballs, about the size of a golf ball, and set them aside.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Lightly sear the meatballs on all sides for 2-3 minutes until they begin to brown.
Transfer the seared meatballs to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until fully cooked through.
While the meatballs are baking, spiralize the zucchini into noodles. If desired, lightly sauté the zucchini noodles in a non-stick pan for 1-2 minutes to slightly soften them.
Warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat and stir in additional chopped herbs if desired.
To assemble, plate the spiralized zucchini, top with the freshly baked meatballs, and drizzle generously with the warm herb marinara sauce. Serve immediately.
