Instructions
Making Honey Garlic Turkey Meatballs involves just a few simple steps. Follow these instructions:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Mix Meatball Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, minced garlic, egg, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix until well combined.
3. Form Meatballs: Use your hands to form the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4. Bake Meatballs: Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, until they are cooked through and golden brown.
5. Prepare Honey Garlic Sauce: While the meatballs are baking, combine honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until it thickens.
6. Glaze Meatballs: Once the meatballs are done baking, remove them from the oven and place them in a large bowl. Pour the honey garlic sauce over the meatballs and gently toss to coat.
7. Serve Hot: Once well coated, transfer the meatballs to a serving dish.
