Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 ounces Ground turkey (93% lean)
- 0.5 cups Rolled oats
- 1 large Egg white
- 0.5 cups Onion (finely chopped)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoons Dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- optional Olive oil spray (for baking sheet)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly spray it with olive oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, rolled oats, egg white, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, dried parsley, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
Mix the ingredients together until thoroughly combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the meatballs tough.
Using clean hands or a small cookie scoop, portion out the mixture into 1 1/2-inch meatballs. You should get approximately 16 meatballs.
Place the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced and not touching.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatballs reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the meatballs from the oven and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve with your favorite low-calorie marinara sauce, over zoodles, or alongside a fresh salad for a healthy meal.
