THANKSGIVING GOBBLER TURKEY DINNER MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment, spray with non-stick spray and set aside. In a medium skillet over medium heat, add the butter and olive oil. When the butter starts to foam, add in the onion and celery. Sauté, stirring often, until the onions and celery start to soften. ~10 minutes. When they are softened, add in the garlic, stir and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, put in a small bowl or plate and allow to cool to room temp. ~15-30 minutes.
• In a bowl, tear up 3 slices of bread and add in the milk. Smush the bread down into the milk. You're making "milk bread". The bread will soak up all/most of the milk. Allow to rest for 5 minutes. In a mixing bowl add in the turkey, cooled onions/celery/garlic mixture, the milk bread mixture, seasonings, egg, and cranberry relish. Take the remaining dry piece of bread and tear up into small pieces and put that into the bowl as well.
• Without overworking the mixture, gently mix just to combine. The mixture should be wet but hold a shape when you form it into a ball. If it doesn't you can add a little bit of regular bread crumbs (1-2 tablespoon) but the mixture will be soft but should hold a shape. Scoop enough meat mixture to form a 2" round ball (I use a large cookie scoop to measure out my meatballs). Wet your hands and shape. Damp hands are a trick to keeping the mixture from sticking to your hands! See notes for smaller meatballs. Place the meatballs on the pan and repeat until all of the meatballs are formed.
• Either spray the meatballs with olive oil with a mister OR using a pastry brush, brush each one with olive oil. This helps with coloring and browning.
• Bake for 20-23 minutes or when the internal temp of the meatball reads 165F. See notes for smaller meatball baking times. If you want a darker char, pop the meatballs under the broiler for a minute.
• Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

TURKEY STUFFING MEATBALLS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat a saucepan to medium heat and melt the butter. Add the diced onions and celery and sprinkle with the kosher salt. Cook onions and celery, occasionally stirring for about 5 minutes. Then add garlic and fresh sage. Continue cooking for an additional 2 minutes. Take the mixture out of the pan and let cool to room temperature.
• Line a baking pan with parchment paper and set aside, and preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Add the onion mixture to a large mixing bowl with the ground turkey, dried sage, black pepper, nutmeg, thyme, cornbread stuffing mix, and eggs. Use your hands to mix well, but not aggressively.
• Use a cookie scoop or hands (see tip) to portion out the meat mixture into 1 1/2 - 2-inch balls and place them on the baking sheet. Be sure to leave room between the meatballs, so they cook evenly. Spray with cooking oil or baste with a little olive oil. Bake for 16-20 minutes, or until the center of the Turkey and Stuffing Meatball measures 165°F.
