A delicious and healthy recipe for garlic butter meatballs served with lemon zucchini noodles. Ground turkey and pork meatballs are cooked to perfection, then combined with spiralized zucchini noodles sautéed in butter, lemon, and garlic.
1: In a large bowl, combine ground turkey and ground pork, cheese, grated garlic, Italian seasoning, bouillon cube, red chili pepper flakes, chopped cilantro, and black pepper. Mix well and form medium balls.
2: Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook the meatballs for 8-10 minutes on all sides until browned and cooked through.
3: Remove meatballs to a clean plate and set aside. In the same skillet, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter; add lemon juice, hot sauce, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 3-4 minutes while stirring until zucchini is crisp.
4: Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, garnish with more cilantro or parsley.
5: Push zucchini to the side and add meatballs back to the pan; reheat for a minute or two.
6: Serve immediately with a lemon slice on the side.
