Honey-Chipotle Turkey Meatballs

This is an easy meatball dish made with ground turkey.  It mixes up fast for a week night dinner.  If you do not like the crunch of onions in your meatballs, you can fry them a bit before adding them.

Honey-Chipotle Turkey Meatballs

Ingredients:

1 1/2 lbs ground turkey
1/2 yellow onion, diced small
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup honey
1-2 Tablespoons chipotle chilies in adobo sauce
4 tsp. cider vinegar

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Mix together ground turkey, onion, garlic, salt and pepper until combined.  Do not overmix.  Form into 16 meatballs.

In a small bowl stir together the honey, chipotle chillies and cider vinegar.

In a large ovenproof skillet, heat 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil over medium high heat.  Add meatballs and cook until browned on all sides, 10-12 minutes.

Transfer skillet to oven and bake 5 minutes.  Remove from oven , pour honey mixture over meatballs, and swirl skillet to coat.  Bake until liquid is reduced and meatballs are glazed, 5 minutes, swirling halfway through.
