Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, mix the turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic, salt, black pepper, and oregano until just combined. Form into small meatballs, about 12 total.

  3. 3

    Arrange the meatballs on one side of the sheet pan and bake for 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Remove the pan, place the flatbreads on the open side, and spread each with marinara. Top with mozzarella and the partially cooked meatballs.

  5. 5

    Drizzle the meatballs lightly with the hot honey, then return the pan to the oven for 8 minutes until the cheese melts and the meatballs are cooked through.

  6. 6

    Finish with more hot honey, basil, or red pepper flakes if using, then slice and serve.

Make it fancy

Kick it up a notch

Optional moves for when you want to impress.

  • A little dollop of ricotta on each slice makes the spicy-sweet thing feel even more balanced.
  • Use chicken sausage instead of turkey if that is what you already have in the fridge.
  • If you want extra color on top, broil the flatbreads for the last minute, but keep an eye on the edges.
  • Scatter thin red onion or pickled jalapeños over the top for something sharper and brighter.
