It’s hard to believe meatballs this juicy, flavorful and tender could be low in fat and calories—and sized just right for two. Thanks to our Test Kitchen for a zesty meal mainstay that can double as an appetizer.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons chopped green pepper
1 egg white
1 garlic clove, minced
2 drops louisiana-style hot sauce
1/3 pound lean ground turkey
1 teaspoon canola oil
sauce:
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons water
4 teaspoons lemon juice
4 teaspoons red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons molasses
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the bread crumbs, green pepper, egg white, garlic and hot sauce. Crumble turkey over mixture and mix well. Shape into 1-in. balls. In a small nonstick skillet, brown meatballs in oil; drain.
2. Combine the sauce ingredients; pour over meatballs. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 2 servings.
