Creamy Spinach Turkey Meatballs: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe

  • Total Time: 38 minute

Ingredients

– 1 pound ground turkey
– 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
– 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (preferably whole wheat)
– 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 large egg
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1/2 cup chicken broth
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Creating these delicious Creamy Spinach Turkey Meatballs is easy if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Mix the Meatball Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, chopped spinach, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.

3. Form the Meatballs: Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.

4. Bake the Meatballs: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through and golden brown.

5. Prepare the Creamy Sauce: While the meatballs are baking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer.

6. Add the Cream: Reduce the heat, and stir in the heavy cream. Allow the sauce to simmer for a few minutes until it starts to thicken slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

7. Combine Meatballs and Sauce: Once the meatballs are cooked, carefully transfer them to the skillet with the creamy sauce. Simmer together for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

8. Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
