Quick & Easy - "Winging It" Turkey Meatballs

We got 4 packs of ground turkey from Costco & are constantly trying to find different ways to cook it.  And what better way to use ground meat than to make meatballs with it?  After browsing a bunch of recipes online, I felt like I knew the gist of it & I was just going to wing it (not to mention I was late getting home & had to get this done quick).


All it took were...
     1 pound ground turkey
     1/4 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
     1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
     1 egg, beaten
     1/2 yellow onion, finely chopped
     Salt & pepper

And all I had to do was...
     Take the onion pieces & sweat them out until they're soft, let cool
     Throw all the ingredients into a large bowl & season with salt/pepper
     Using your hands, mixing everything together until well incorporated
     Make a small patty & cook it to make sure the seasoning is good
     Using your hands again, roll the mixture into 1 inch balls
     Sear the meatballs in a pan until all the sides are browned (~5 min)
     Continue to cook the meatballs in tomato sauce until cooked (~7 min)
     Serve with a pasta of your choice.

And there you have it.  If you are not thinking of cooking the meatballs for a pasta, you can continue cooking the meatballs after they've been browned using chicken broth or baking it.  I thought the turkey was kind of mushy but it is ground meat after all.  Surprisingly, these microwaved really well the day after.
