We are trying to eat a little less beef. That's why I tried using turkey to make my meatballs. These turned out great, moist and delicious! They passed the test, Hubby likes them!

How To Make my moist turkey meatballs

Step 1

Place the ground turkey in a large bowl. Break apart and mix in 2 tablespoons of olive oil. This is the secret that helps keep the meatballs moist.

Step 2

Then add the remaining ingredients, mix well. Season to taste with above spices, mix again. The mixture is very moist.
Step 3

I use a small melon scoop to form the meatballs.
Step 4

I like to fry my meatballs in a small amount of "light" olive oil. Fry in two batches, this gives you room to move the meatballs around in the pan.
Step 5

Brown well on all sides and cook a few minutes in the pan. That's it! Serve as you would regular meatballs!
Step 6

These meatballs are nice and moist! Enjoy!
