Cheesy Mozzarella-Stuffed Turkey Meatballs Delight
✅Ingredients
Meat:
• 1 lb ground turkey
Produce:
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Refrigerated:
• 1 large egg
Baking & Spices:
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• Salt and pepper, to taste
Oils & Vinegars:
• 2 tbsp olive oil
Bread & Baked Goods:
• ½ cup breadcrumbs
Dairy:
• 4 oz mozzarella cheese, cut into small cubes (about ½-inch)
• ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
✅Instructions
Mix the meatball base:
• In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, minced garlic, onion powder, parsley, egg, Italian seasoning, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper
• Mix until just combined — don’t overwork it or the meatballs will get tough
Stuff and shape:
• Scoop a heaping tablespoon of the mixture and flatten it slightly in your palm
• Place a cube of mozzarella in the center, then wrap the turkey around it and roll into a ball
• Repeat with remaining mixture and cheese
Cook the meatballs:
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat
• Add meatballs in batches and sear on all sides until golden brown (about 5–6 minutes total)
• Once browned, cover the skillet and reduce heat to low
• Cook for another 5–7 minutes until the meatballs are fully cooked through and the cheese inside is melty
Optional (but delish):
• Add your favorite marinara sauce to the skillet and simmer for 5 minutes for extra flavor
• Serve with pasta, zucchini noodles, or on toasted sub rolls with extra sauce and cheese 😍. #meatballs #turkeymeatballs #stuffedmeatballs #dinner #EasyRecipe
