Easy to make and flavorful turkey meatballs made with few ingredients and no breadcrumbs. Ready in 10 minutes!

📝 Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil plus more to brush on top
  • 2 green onions (thinly sliced (or 2 tablespoons finely chopped white onion))
  • salt + pepper to taste

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Preheat broiler. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
  2. 2In a bowl, add ground turkey, cumin, oregano, onion powder, garlic powder, parsley, egg, sesame oil, and green onions. Gently mix until well combined. Careful not to overmix or the meatballs won’t be moist and tender.
  3. 3Form the mixture into meatballs. Place on lined baking sheet. Using a medium cookie scoop makes 15 meatballs, 1-inch in diameter. You can definitely make them in whatever size you'd like, just make sure they are all the same size so they cook evenly.
  4. 4Broil on HIGH for 10 minutes or until meatballs are cooked through.* Brush with more sesame oil on top for more flavor. Serve with your favorite side dish. Enjoy!
