Ingredients
Method
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced turkey breast, rolled oats, Parmesan cheese, egg, parsley, garlic, olive oil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together with your hands or a wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Use your hands to shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 1/2 inches (3.8 cm) in diameter. You should end up with around 12-15 meatballs.
- Heat a large frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add a small amount of olive oil to the pan and swirl it around to coat the bottom.
- When the oil is hot, add the meatballs to the pan and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they're browned and cooked through. You might need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your pan.
- While the meatballs are cooking, heat the marinara sauce in a separate saucepan over low heat.
- Once the meatballs are done, add them to the marinara sauce and simmer for a few minutes to coat them in the sauce.
- Serve the meatballs hot, garnished with some extra parsley and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese if desired. You can also add a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat them in the oven or microwave until hot and steaming.
Notes
Mozzarella cheese is optional. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days or frozen for 2 months.
