Ingredients

Meatballs

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic
  • 2 teaspoon parsley

Parmesan Sauce

  • 1 3/4 cup Heavy cream
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese cut from the block
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven on broil.
  • Combine ground turkey with egg, salt, pepper, garlic and parsley. Note, this will be sticky. In order to form meatballs be sure to oil your hands before rolling them.
  • Roll seasoned ground turkey into meatballs with the diameter of a quarter but thick enough to be considered a meatball. Not super tiny but not so thick they will have a hard time cooking through. I used a meatball maker and I got 15 meatballs.
  • In a skillet on medium heat add oil and meatballs. Don't crowd them, if you need to cook in batches do so. Cook them on all sides possible for browning until they are cooked through.
  • Remove meatballs and then adjust heat to low to medium heat. Remove any excess grease/fat left in the pan. Add in heavy cream, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Start stirring, allow the sauce to simmer a little, just slightly. Continue to stir as the cheese melt and starts to thicken the sauce. Sauce should be thick before adding in meatballs. After sauce is right then add meatballs back in
  • Place in oven just to brown the top slightly. Remove, garnish with parsley and and a bit of parmesan then serve. Careful, the cream sauce will be hot. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
