Ingredients
For the meatballs: 2 lb extra-lean ground turkey 1 cup quinoa, cooked or quick-cooking oats 1 large egg 1 tsp ground coriander 1 tsp paprika 1 tsp cumin 1 tsp garlic powder ½ tsp turmeric 1 tsp fresh ginger, crushed ⅛ tsp cayenne pepper 4 Tbsp low-fat plain yogurt 1 tsp salt For the zucchini skewers: 12 wood skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes 4 large zucchini, sliced lengthwise in half, then sliced lengthwise again and cut into ½" pieces 1 Tbsp olive oil ½ tsp salt ¼ tsp pepper For the yogurt sauce: 1 ½ cups low-fat plain yogurt ½ cup cilantro, chopped 1 tsp honey ⅛ tsp cayenne pepper
How to make it
Preheat the oven to 400°. Spray a nonstick baking sheet with cooking spray. Soak wood skewers in water while combining meatball ingredients. Combine turkey, quinoa, egg, coriander, paprika, cumin, turmeric, garlic powder, ginger, ⅛ tsp cayenne, 4 Tbsp yogurt, and 1 tsp salt in a bowl. Mix will be soft. Preheat a large nonstick skillet sprayed generously with cooking spray over medium heat. Working in batches, use an ice cream scoop to place 6 meatballs into the pan, and brown on both sides for 3-4 minutes per side, then remove to the baking sheet. Make the second batch, and place them on the baking sheet as well. Combine zucchini, olive oil, ½ tsp salt, and ¼ tsp pepper in a second bowl. Skewer zucchini, and arrange around the meatballs. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, taking care not to overcook or meatballs. I slice one to make sure it’s no longer raw in the middle with just a faint tinge of pink, then remove from the oven to allow the meatballs to finish cooking. While meatballs are cooking, combine remaining yogurt, cilantro, honey, and cayenne in a bowl and chill. Serve meatballs and zucchini with sauce.
