Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup onion
- 2 large garlic cloves
- 0.25 cup fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Finely chop the onion and garlic. Roughly chop the fresh parsley.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, almond flour, egg, chopped onion, garlic, parsley, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well using your hands or a wooden spoon until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Step 4
Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 tablespoon each in size, and place them on a plate.
Step 5
Heat the coconut oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 6
Once the oil is hot, add the meatballs in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Brown the meatballs on all sides, which should take about 5 minutes.
Step 7
Transfer the skillet with all the browned meatballs to the preheated oven.
Step 8
Bake for 20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
Step 9
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the meatballs rest for a few minutes before serving.
Step 10
Serve warm with your favorite Paleo-friendly sauce or side.
