The BEST Turkey Meatballs

I am not kidding when I say these are the best turkey meatballs! These are healthier and delicious and so simple to make! We found ourselves going back for seconds in no time!
This recipe comes from Jessica Alba and will be my go to meatball. Give these a try, you will love them. I had homemade broth and used that but low sodium store bought is fine too! I served these over lightly buttered egg noodles.

INGREDIENTS
2 pounds lean ground turkey
1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup finely chopped carrots ( I grated them)
1/4 cup finely chopped zucchini ( I grated them)
1/4 cup finely diced onion
2 large eggs
2 Tablespoons Italian seasoning
1 Tablespoon coarse sea salt
2 Tablespoons olive oil
3/4 cup homemade or store bought low sodium chicken broth.

Cooked egg noodles, lightly buttered for serving.

DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl mix turkey, Panko, carrots, zucchini, onion, eggs,  Italian seasoning and salt. Mix until combined. Form into 1 inch balls. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, add the meatballs and cook turning until they are browned on all sides.  This should take about 7-10 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of chicken broth, cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until almost all of the liquid is almost completely absorbed, about 7 minutes. Add remaining 1/4 cup of broth and increase the heat back to medium and cook uncovered until liquid is absorbed and the meatballs are cooked through.  Serve warm with buttered pasta.

Enjoy!
