Ingredients
  • 1½ lbs. ground chicken or turkey
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tsp. onion powder
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. ground black pepper
  • 4 tbsp. butter, divided
  • 2 shallots, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz. mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 tbsp. flour
  • ¾ cup marsala wine
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • Mashed potatoes and fresh parsley for serving, optional
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, combine the meatball ingredients. Ground meat, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and olive oil.
  2. Form the mixture into meatballs, then melt 2 tbsp. of the butter in a skillet and brown the meatballs on all sides. Remove from the skillet.
  3. While the meatballs are browning, slice the mushrooms, finely chop the shallots, and mince the garlic. Add some more butter to the skillet and cook the shallots and garlic first, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Add the mushrooms and cook until they release their liquid. Add the flour and toss to coat before adding in the marsala wine, chicken broth, and cream. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring frequently, and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Return the meatballs to the skillet and coat with the sauce.
  5. Serve over mashed potatoes and garnish with parsley for a delicious cozy dinner!
