To begin with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can cook turkey meatballs using 14 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Turkey Meatballs:
- Prepare Ground Turkey
- Prepare Garlic Powder
- Take Dried Oregano
- Prepare Dried basil
- Make ready Veganless chicken seasoning (or regular powder chicken bullions)
- Get Panko Bread (any type of bread crumbs is okay)
- Take Salt and pepper
- Prepare Sazon. You will need the following:
- Make ready Sazon
- Make ready 1 Red, yellow, and green bell peppers
- Prepare 1 large white onion
- Take 5 garlic cloves
- Take Dried oregano

Spray a nonstick pan lightly with veggie oil. While meatball purists might declare blasphemy, turkey meatballs are actually my favorite meatballs. It's partially nostalgia — the only kind of meatballs my dad made growing up were made with turkey — and partially because I enjoy their lighter flavor and texture. For the meatballs: In a large bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, basil, parsley, milk, ketchup if using, tomato paste, salt, pepper, eggs, garlic and onions.
Instructions to make Turkey Meatballs:
- Sazon. Okay so I am Caribbean and we cook with fresh ingredients. We make sazon (some call it mojo) with red bell peppers, green bell peppers, yellow bell peppers, onion, garlic, sweet peppers (this is called gustoso in spanish markets), dried oregano and water. Put all ingredients in the blender This liquified seasoning is amazing on all of your meats. Once done set aside. First picture shows the sazon after it's been done.
- Place ground turkey in a bowl. Add the sazon, panko bread. 1/2 tbsp of dried basil, dried oregano. 1 tbsp of chicken seasoning. Add 1/2 tsp salt and pepper. Mix well adding more bread if meat mixture is too wet. You want meat that feels dense but still soft.
- After well combined, shape into balls. I use my hands as a guide for how big I want them, but you can use an ice cream scoop if you want uniform shaped ones. Place in the fridge for half hour to let them firm up and also the flavors to mix well into the meat.
- Fried the meat balls in a pan with enough oil. Making sure they don't burn and you turn them on all sides. If you have a deep fryer this works best (I need to invest in one but I'm not a fan of frying that much 🤣)
- This is how they look after fried. These are popular with kids too. Also, we dont really eat them like this, we then cook them in sauce and serve ontop of rice. What I did was place them in my slow cooker after I fried them and added my own sauce and let them slow cook for half hour. They are super delicious and moist. I hope you enjoy.
Using a wooden spoon, stir to. Add bay leaves and meatballs; gently stir into sauce. Serve with pasta; if desired, sprinkle with additional parsley and Parmesan cheese. Freeze option: Omitting additional parsley and Parmesan cheese, freeze cooled meatball mixture in freezer containers. Tender meatballs filled with onions and Parmesan, bathed in plenty of tomato sauce, are classics in every way except for one: They call for turkey instead of the usual beef (or beef-veal-pork.
