Dairy-Free Turkey Meatballs

Serves 3-4


Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil

1 medium onion, small diced

2 cloves garlic, smashed and minced

1 pound ground turkey

½ cup dried breadcrumbs, such as Panko

1 jar Otamot Organic Essential Tomato Sauce, divided

1 egg, beaten

2 tbsp minced parsley

1½ tsp kosher salt


Preparation:

  1. Heat a large non-stick skillet on medium heat. Add the olive oil and heat for 30 seconds. Add the diced onion and sauté, stirring frequently, until lightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Allow the onion and garlic mixture to cool to room temperature.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the onion and garlic mixture, ground turkey, breadcrumbs, ¼ cup Otamot Organic Essential Tomato Sauce, ¼ cup water, beaten egg, minced parsley, and kosher salt. Combine the mixture well with a wooden spoon or your hands.
  3. Using a medium scoop, divide the mixture into 2 oz portions, roughly the size of a golf ball. The recipe will yield approximately 12-14 meatballs total.
  4. Heat the large non-stick skillet on medium heat and add the meatballs in an even layer, trying not to overcrowd the pan. If necessary, cook the meatballs in two batches. Sauté until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side.
  5. Add the remainder of the jar of Otamot to the pan and bring the sauce with the meatballs to a simmer. Simmer for 5-7 minutes to ensure the meatballs are cooked through and all the flavors have combined.
  6. Serve these delicious and easy Dairy-Free Turkey Meatballs with your favorite cooked pasta or on a roll to make a tasty meatball sandwich.
