Instructions
Step 1
1. Preheat the oven to 375°.
Step 2
2. Stir together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, salt, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and black pepper. Whisk together the egg and tomato paste (if using).
Step 3
3. Add breadcrumbs and whisked egg to ground turkey. Use your hands to mix until just combined. Do not over-mix or compact the meat if possible. Overmixing leads to tougher meatballs.
Step 4
4. Use a rounded tablespoon to roll into meatballs. You should get between 16-20 meatballs. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 5
5. Brush the meatballs with olive oil. Bake for 13-16 minutes until cooked through.
