"Created by AI, this recipe combines technology and taste for a modern twist on home cooking."

Combining the savory flavors of turkey, herbs, and classic stuffing, these handheld delights are crisp on the outside and tender inside. They’re easy to prepare and versatile enough to serve as an appetizer, side dish, or main course.

Kitchen Equipment Needed

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper or nonstick spray
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Medium saucepan

Ingredients Overview

  • Stuffing Mix: Choose your favorite boxed stuffing or homemade for a base full of flavor.
  • Ground Turkey: Lean and protein-packed, turkey adds substance to the stuffing balls.
  • Chicken Broth: Adds moisture and enhances the savory flavor of the stuffing.
  • Eggs: Bind the mixture, ensuring the balls hold their shape.
  • Seasonings: A mix of sage, thyme, and parsley boosts the traditional stuffing flavors.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 6 cups prepared stuffing (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 tsp dried sage
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. Prepare the Mixture:
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the prepared stuffing, ground turkey, chicken broth, beaten eggs, sage, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
  3. Form the Balls:
    Scoop out the mixture and shape it into 1 1/2-inch balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
  4. Bake:
    Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the stuffing balls are golden brown and the turkey is fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).
  5. Serve:
    Allow the balls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm as a side dish or appetizer!

Recipe Tips

  • Moisture Control: If the mixture feels too dry, add a bit more chicken broth, one tablespoon at a time.
  • Make Ahead: Prepare the mixture and form the balls a day in advance. Store them in the fridge until ready to bake.
  • Crispy Outside: For extra crunch, spray the balls lightly with cooking spray before baking.

What to Serve With This Recipe

  • Pair these stuffing balls with a rich turkey gravy or cranberry sauce for dipping.
  • Serve alongside roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
  • Add them to your holiday spread as an easy-to-serve alternative to traditional stuffing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different type of meat?
Yes, ground chicken or beef works well, but turkey gives the most authentic flavor.

Can I freeze these stuffing balls?
Absolutely! Freeze them after baking, then reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through.

What if I don’t have sage or thyme?
You can substitute with a premixed poultry seasoning for similar flavor.

Serving Suggestions

These Turkey Stuffing Balls are versatile enough to be the star of your dinner or a hearty appetizer. Serve them with a side of green beans, a dollop of cranberry sauce, or a drizzle of creamy gravy for a satisfying and flavorful dish. Enjoy the taste of the holidays in every bite!
