Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups seasoned bread crumbs
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
• Salt and pepper
• 2 pounds ground turkey
• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

1. n a medium bowl, mix together 1/2 cup bread crumbs, the onion, egg, parsley, parmesan and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Add the turkey and mix until combined. Place the remaining bread crumbs in a shallow bowl. Roll the meat mixture into eighteen 1 1/2-inch balls, then roll in the bread crumb mixture to coat.

2. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, about 8 minutes.

Add the remaining chicken broth in 1/4-cup increments until the meatballs are cooked through and all the broth has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.
