Cheesy Parmesan Chicken Or Turkey Meatballs Recipes

CHEESY CHICKEN PARMESAN MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, combine tofu, ricotta, Parmesan, bread crumbs, egg, garlic, oregano, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper, and mix until well combined. Add chicken and gently mix to incorporate. Lightly wet hands to prevent meatball mixture from sticking, then roll into 24 (1 1/2-inch) golf ball-size rounds.
• In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium. Add bell peppers, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add marinara sauce and meatballs, and stir gently to coat the meatballs in the sauce. Bring to a boil, cover and transfer to the oven to bake until meatballs are cooked through, 20 minutes.
• Top with provolone slices, slightly overlapping, and bake until cheese melts, about 3 minutes longer.
• Serve meatballs, peppers and sauce over egg noodles. Garnish with parsley, if using.
