Ingredients
  • 12 ounces ground lamb
  • 12 ounces 93%-lean ground turkey
  • 1 cup fresh whole-wheat breadcrumbs (see Tip)
  • 1 large egg white
  • 1 cup minced onion, divided
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced, divided
  • 4 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, divided
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup red wine
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes

Directions
  1. 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  2. 2. Combine lamb, turkey, breadcrumbs, egg white, 1/2 cup onion, half the garlic, 2 tablespoons mint, coriander, cumin and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Gently mix to combine. Shape into 48 little meatballs, about 1 tablespoon each. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. 3. Bake the meatballs for 10 minutes. Set aside.
  4. 4. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the remaining 1/2 cup onion and cook, stirring, until golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the remaining garlic, wine, cayenne and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Simmer over medium-low heat until the wine has reduced significantly, 3 to 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, return to a simmer, reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, for 20 minutes.
  5. 5. Add the meatballs to the sauce and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Garnish with the remaining 2 tablespoons mint.
