Ingredients

  • nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 2 ounces feta cheese
  • 0.5 cups seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red onion
  • 2 tablespoons fresh mint
  • 1 tablespoon fresh oregano
  • 1 tablespoon parsley
  • 0.75 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 0.5 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 0.25 teaspoons crushed red pepper
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. 1

    Gather all ingredients.

  2. 2

    Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil; spray with cooking spray.

  3. 3

    Place ground turkey, feta, breadcrumbs, olive oil, red onion, mint, oregano, parsley, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, cumin, lemon zest, crushed red pepper, and egg in a large bowl; stir gently until well combined.

  4. 4

    Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, shape mixture into 24 (1-ounce) meatballs; arrange in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Generously spray meatballs with cooking spray.

  5. 5

    Broil in the preheated oven until meatballs are golden brown on top, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest portion of meatballs registers 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 8 to 10 minutes. Rotate baking sheet from front to back halfway through cooking time. Garnish with oregano leaves, and serve with lemon wedges.
