Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 1h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 pounds ground turkey
1 cup finely chopped onion
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 egg
1 cup Italian-style bread crumbs
½ cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
½ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
¼ cup prepared pesto
¼ cup milk
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons fresh ground black pepper
1 pound fresh mozzarella, cut into small cubes
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 (24 ounce) jars marinara sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Place the ground turkey, onion, garlic, egg, bread crumbs, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, parsley, pesto, milk, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Mix until evenly blended, then form into 1 3/4-inch meatballs. Make a hole in the meatball with your finger and place a cheese cube in the hole. Seal the meatball around the cheese and place on a nonstick baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil over the meatballs.
