Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground turkey
- 1 medium, finely chopped Yellow onion
- 2 minced Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, sautéed onion and garlic, gluten-free breadcrumbs, egg, chopped parsley, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Scoop about 1 to 2 tablespoons of the turkey mixture and shape it into a small bite-sized ball, repeat this until all the mixture is used. Place each formed turkey bite on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the turkey bites are cooked through and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm as an appetizer or pair with your favorite dipping sauce.
