Mix the Meatball Mixture:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, minced garlic, chopped red onion, egg, bread crumbs, dill, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix gently with your hands or a spoon until all ingredients are well incorporated. Avoid over-mixing to keep the meatballs tender.

Form the Meatballs:

Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form the mixture into 1-inch meatballs. Place them on a plate or baking sheet.

Cook the Meatballs:

Stovetop:

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally until browned on all sides and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C).

Optional Oven Method:

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the meatballs on a lined baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, turning halfway through.

Serve:

Enjoy the meatballs warm with your choice of side. They pair wonderfully with tzatziki, hummus, or a Greek salad.

Serving Suggestions:

In Pita Pockets: Fill pita bread with meatballs, lettuce, tomatoes, and tzatziki sauce.

On Skewers: Serve on skewers with grilled vegetables for a fun presentation.

Over Rice or Quinoa: Top with a lemon-herb sauce or yogurt dressing for a hearty meal.
