Ingredients
Meatballs:
1
lb
ground turkey
1/2
lb
hot breakfast sausage
1/2
tsp
garlic powder
1
tsp
salt
1/4
tsp
ground black pepper
1/2
cup
breadcrumbs
1
egg
Glaze:
2
tbsp
honey
1
tbsp
chipotle chiles in adobo sauce,
chopped
2
tsp
cider vinegar
For Frying:
1
tbsp
extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a medium bowl, mix together turkey, sausage, garlic, salt, ground pepper, bread crumbs, and egg until combined (do not over-mix).
Form into 16 equal meatballs. (See the image above how I scored the meat to make this step easier.)
In a small bowl, stir together honey, chiles, and vinegar.
In a large ovenproof skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high. Add meatballs and cook until browned on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes.
Transfer skillet to oven and bake 5-7 minutes.
Remove from oven, turn the meatballs and pour the honey mixture over them.
Return skillet to oven and bake until liquid is reduced and meatballs are glazed, about 5-7 minutes, swirling glaze again halfway through.
