Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, onion powder, garlic powder, dried thyme, dried oregano, ground black pepper, and paprika.
Add the egg and panko breadcrumbs to the turkey mixture, and mix until well combined. You can use a spoon or your hands, but be sure not to overmix as it can lead to tough bites.
Drizzle the olive oil into the mixture and fold it in to ensure the bites stay moist while baking.
Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, form the turkey mixture into 1-inch bite-sized balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the turkey bites are golden brown and cooked through. You can check by inserting a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Once cooked, remove the turkey bites from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
Sprinkle the cooked turkey bites with fresh parsley before serving for a burst of color and flavor.
Serve the turkey bites warm as an appetizer or snack, accompanied by your favorite low-sodium dipping sauce if desired.
