Instructions
Preheat oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine turkey, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, egg, garlic, parsley, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix gently until just combined. Roll into 16 meatballs.
Tip: Slightly wet your hands before rolling to prevent sticking.
Place meatballs on the baking sheet. Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden and cooked through.
Pour marinara sauce into a large oven-safe skillet. Nestle the baked meatballs into the sauce. Top each with a slice of fresh mozzarella.
Return to oven for 5 minutes until the mozzarella melts. Garnish with fresh basil and serve with crusty bread or pasta.
