Instructions

  1. 1. In a mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, ground white pepper, salt, and nutmeg. Mix thoroughly until evenly combined, then form into small meatballs roughly the size of a walnut.
  2. 2. Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the meatballs and sear them for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned but not fully cooked. Remove them from the pan and set aside.
  3. 3. In the same pan, add chicken stock and bring to a gentle simmer. Return the meatballs to the pan and cook for 10 minutes over low heat, ensuring they are fully cooked through.
  4. 4. In a small bowl, mix plain flour with a few tablespoons of the hot stock to create a smooth paste. Gradually whisk this paste back into the pan to thicken the sauce.
  5. 5. Stir in capers and lemon juice, allowing the sauce to meld for 2-3 minutes. Adjust seasoning if needed.
  6. 6. Garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately while hot. Enjoy with crusty bread or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
