Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Line a baking sheet with a nonstick baking mat or parchment paper. Set aside. (You can also place a cooling rack on top of the baking sheet to prevent the meatballs from sitting in their juices, if you'd like to do this. I used to, but the clean up of the cooling rack makes me crazy, so I forgo it now.)
- In a large bowl, measure out the turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, seasonings, onion and garlic.
- Use your hands to mix the ingredients until incorporated.
- Once the meatball ingredients are combined, form palm-sized meatballs (with your hands or with a cookie scoop) and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the meatballs for 25-30 minutes or until cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Toss with your favorite marinara sauce and serve with pasta or serve alongside it as an easy appetizer.
Notes
- You can make larger meatballs with this recipe. Their bake time will be longer, and you'll have less than listed above.
