Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup onion
- 2 large garlic cloves
- 0.25 cup fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Finely chop the onion and garlic. Roughly chop the fresh parsley.
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, almond flour, egg, chopped onion, garlic, parsley, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well using your hands or a wooden spoon until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 tablespoon each in size, and place them on a plate.
Heat the coconut oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the meatballs in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Brown the meatballs on all sides, which should take about 5 minutes.
Transfer the skillet with all the browned meatballs to the preheated oven.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the meatballs rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm with your favorite Paleo-friendly sauce or side.
