1 lb ground turkey

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and golden brown, about 7 minutes.
Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and let the onion mixture cool to room temperature.
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, panko, Parmesan, parsley, salt, pepper, and onion mixture. Use your hands to mix until just combined.
Shape the turkey mixture into 1½-inch balls (you should have about 14). Arrange on the prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
Bake the meatballs until browned and cooked through, 20–25 minutes.
Serve with pasta and sauce of your choice.
Enjoy!
