Turkey Meatballs with Greek or Italian Seasoning

Beef  Greek  Italian  Main Dish  Mediterranean  Poultry 

• 1 1/2 lbs lean ground turkey (or ground beef)
• 1/4 C bread crumbs
• 2 tsp minced onion
• 1 tsp minced garlic
• 1 tsp dried parsley
• 1 tsp Worstershire Sauce
• 1 egg slightly beaten
• 2 Tbsp water
• 1 Tbsp Greek (or Italian if you prefer) Seasoning
• pinch of nutmeg
• 2 Tbsp olive oil

Place all ingredients except for olive oil into a large bowl.

Quickly mix by hand

Shape into small or medium sized balls.

Heat olive oil in a skillet on medium heat.

Place meatballs into skillet and brown, turning occassionally until all sides are brown and they are cooked through. (maybe about 20-30 min total, depending on their size)

Remove and drain on paper towels.

I make these basic meatballs on a regular basis and use them with speghetti and tomato sauce with Italian seasonings. (oregano, basil, and thyme, about 1/2 tsp of each) I also make these with ground beef. Tonight however, inspired by my buddies Spryte and Culinary Alchemist, I made them with tzatziki sauce and used Greek seasoning. They each have recipes for tzatziki sauce, check their profiles ;) The "Greek Seasoning" was inspired by Mcat49, the original recipe is here: http://www.bakespace.com/recipes/detail/Greek-Seasoning/32180/
