4 servings
For the meatballs
- 1 ½ lb ground turkey
- ½ cup gluten free breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
Chef's tipFor each egg, mix 1 tbsp ground flaxseed with 3 tbsp water and let it sit until it thickens. It holds ingredients together but won't make things rise - best in pancakes, muffins, and cookies. - 3 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ cup red onion, finely grated
- ⅓ cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced (about 2 tbsp juice), divided
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
For the pan sauce
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp cold water
For serving
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- lemon wedges (optional)
