Description

Prepare to be wowed by the incredible flavor and aroma of Honey Garlic Ground Turkey Meatballs! This delightful dish combines the leanness of ground turkey with the irresistible sweetness of honey and the savory depth of garlic.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp cornstarch + 1 tbsp water

Instructions

1. Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix the ingredients together until they are well incorporated. Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, form the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.

2. You can choose to bake or pan-fry the Honey Garlic Ground Turkey Meatballs, depending on your preference. For baking, place the formed meatballs on a baking sheet and cook them in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are cooked through and lightly browned. Alternatively, you can pan-fry the meatballs in a large skillet over medium-high heat until they are golden brown and fully cooked, about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally.

3. While the meatballs are cooking, it’s time to make the delectable honey garlic sauce. In a saucepan, combine the honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, and minced garlic. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Slowly pour the slurry into the simmering sauce, whisking constantly, until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.

Notes

Honey Garlic Ground Turkey Meatballs are an excellent choice for meal prepping. You can make a large batch and store the cooked meatballs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. When ready to serve, simply reheat the meatballs in the sauce or on their own, and enjoy a delicious and convenient meal.
