Ingredients
- 12 ounces lean ground turkey
- 3 tablespoons breadcrumbs
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tablespoons onion minced
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley chopped
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 cup mushrooms sliced
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1/2 tablespoon white wine
- 4 cups of arugula
- 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese grated
- pinch of salt
- pinch of pepper
Instructions
-
Combine turkey, breadcrumbs, egg yolk, onion, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and parsley. Mix gently until combined. Do not over mix. Form into 1 inch balls.
-
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
-
Saute meatballs flipping once half way through. They should take about 5-8 minutes to cook. The center of the meatball should not be pink.
-
Meanwhile, in another saute pan heat 1/2 tablespoon olive oil.
-
Add mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender.
-
Add in garlic and cook for an additional minute.
-
Add in white wine and allow to cook for one minute.
-
Toss in the arugula and cook until wilted down. This takes about 2 minutes (You may have to do this in batches if it won't all fit in the pan).
-
Sprinkle with cheese and season with salt and pepper.
-
To serve plate the arugula and mushroom mixture on the bottom of each plate. Place meatballs on top and sprinkle with more cheese if desired. Serve immediately.
