lemony turkey meatballs

 








I've made these meatballs twice and plan to make them again this week.  They are SO good with the lemon zest and fresh parsley. Delicious.
Note:  Great with jasmine rice, hummus and tzatziki sauce.

lemony turkey meatballs (from Cook For You Gut Health, America's Test Kitchen)
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
1 egg
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 pound 93 percent lean ground turkey
1-2 tablespoons olive oil

Combine bread crumbs, egg, parsley, lemon, salt and pepper.  Add the turkey and knead until combined.  Use a small scoop to form meatballs.  Place on a small cookies sheet and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Heat oil in a skillet.  Add the meatballs and brown on all sides until done.
