Ingredients
- 1 lb (450 g) ground turkey or chicken
- 1 pkg Honey Garlic Meatball Seasoning or Sweet Garlic Chicken Seasoning
- 1⁄4 cup soft goat cheese or cream cheese
- 2 tbsp honey
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 425° F. Line Sheet Pan with Sheet Pan Liner.
- In a large bowl, crumble in ground meat; add seasoning. Mix well. Using 1 tbsp as a guide, form meatballs; place on pan. Flatten slightly into discs and put about 1⁄2 tsp cheese in the centre of each disc. Reshape into a ball, sealing meat around cheese.
- In a bowl, melt honey in the microwave for about 20 sec.
- Brush meatballs with melted honey. Bake until cooked through, about 10 min.
- Insert a toothpick into each ball—they’ll be easier for guests to pick up.
