Turkey Swedish Meatballs Recipe

Turkey Swedish Meatballs Recipe

  • Meatballs:
  • cooking spray
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup minced onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 pound lean ground turkey
  • 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • Sauce:
  • 1 (14.25 ounce) can low-sodium beef broth
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • salt to taste (optional)
  • 1/4 cup light sour cream
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish lightly with cooking spray.
  2. Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Let cool briefly, about 5 minutes.
  3. Combine onion mixture, turkey, bread crumbs, egg, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 1/2 teaspoon parsley, allspice, and nutmeg in a large bowl; mix well to combine. Form mixture into 1-inch meatballs. Transfer to baking dish.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until meatballs are cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  5. Pour beef broth into a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Add flour; seal and shake vigorously until flour is dissolved.
  6. Pour beef broth mixture into a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 1/2 teaspoon parsley, black pepper, and salt. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; stir in sour cream and meatballs. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until flavors combine, 10 to 15 minutes.
