Shhh!... It's a secret twist! ---turkey meatballs.....at kitchen! kitchen!..

Turkey Meatballs with a Secret Twist
Shhh.. the "secret twist" are capers and caramelized onions.
Turkey Meatballs with a Secret Twist
Finished off with Parmigiano  Reggiano.
Another repeat of the TURKEY MEATBALLS and this time with a twist by adding CAPERS (rinsed and drained) and CARAMELIZED VIDALIA ONIONS. It may be another turkey meatballs, but with the added capers and caramelized vidalia onions, your palate welcomes the taste of the sweetness of the caramelized onions and a hint of the vinegary capers.
You may serve this with pasta, potatoes or have those baguettes ready to soak up the sauce.
Just lovely!!
For recipe see previous posting of "TURKEY MEATBALLS"
CARAMELIZED ONIONS....
1 VIDALIA ONIONS sliced thinly (it may seem a lot but these will cook down)
1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil and a tablespoon of butter
A pinch of kosher salt
Heat up a medium pan with olive oil and butter, throw in the onions, add a pinch of salt and stir on medium heat until caramelized to golden brown about 10-15 minutes. Let cool and scatter around the top of the meatballs.
CAPERS......
1 tablespoon of capers rinsed in cold water and drained
Sprinkle around the top of the meatballs with caramelized onions. (caramelized onions and capers are great enhancers on any dish especially meat dishes- those flavors just love to dance around your palate).
