Turkey Meatballs are a lean and flavorful alternative to traditional meatballs. Perfectly baked, you could simmer with a savory sauce over noodles, zoodles or Miracle Noodles.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground turkey

  • 1 pound ground turkey sausage

  • 1 cup Pork King Good Italian Pork Rind Crumbs

  • 2 medium eggs

  • 4 Tablespoons grated Parmesan Cheese

  • 4 teaspoons Italian Seasoning

  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF. In a bowl, stir together the Pork King Good breadcrumbs, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the ground turkey to a separate large bowl, then add the egg and breadcrumb mixture. Use your hands to mix everything together until evenly combined. Try not to overmix as this can make the meatballs tough.
  • Divide and shape the meat mixture into 18 meatballs, about three tablespoons each or about 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
  • Place the shaped meatballs on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Transfer the meatballs to the oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until cooked through. Flip the meatballs and cook for 10 more minutes until golden brown.
