Ingredients

• 1.25 pounds ground turkey
• 0.25 teaspoon poultry seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 pinch cayenne pepper
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 0.25 cup milk
• 0.5 cup plain bread crumbs
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 cup canned jellied cranberry sauce
• 0.5 cup orange marmalade
• 0.5 cup chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon minced jalapeno pepper
• 1 tablespoon minced Fresno pepper
• 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Collect all of your necessary ingredients.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, poultry seasoning, garlic salt, onion powder, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne pepper. Add the egg, milk, and bread crumbs and mix well. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Roll the turkey mixture into small, bite-sized meatballs, approximately one tablespoon each. Place the meatballs in a single layer in the hot skillet.
4. Cook the meatballs, browning them evenly on all sides, turning occasionally. Once browned, transfer the meatballs to a clean baking sheet and set aside.
5. In the same skillet, combine the cranberry sauce, orange marmalade, and chicken broth over medium heat.
6. Add the jalapeno and Fresno peppers to the sauce, then gently return the meatballs to the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and continue cooking until the meatballs are fully cooked and the glaze has thickened to your liking. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Serve the glazed turkey meatballs as a delicious appetizer and enjoy!
