Honey Chipotle Turkey Meatballs

I adapted this recipe (to make more sauce/glaze) from a recipe I found in Everyday Food from Martha Stewart. It's a quick easy meal (or appetizer) to pull together and it doesn't cost much! The kids really like it.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/2 lbs. ground turkey
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced small
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 tsp. fine salt
  • 1/4 tsp. ground pepper
  • 4 T. honey
  • 1-2 T. chopped chopotle chiles in adobo sauce
  • 4 T. cider vinegar

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 375. 
  2. In medium bowl, mix together ground turkey, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper until combined (do not overmix). Form into 16 meatballs.
  3. In a small bowl, stir together honey, chipotles, and cider vinegar.
  4. In large ovenproof skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium high heat. Add meatballs and cook until browned on all sides (10-12 minutes).
  5. Transfer skillet to oven and bake 5 minutes. 
  6. Remove from oven and pour honey mixture over meatballs, and swirl skillet to coat.
  7. Bake until liquid is reduced and meatballs are glazed (5 minutes), swirling halfway through.
