Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix until uniformly blended.
- Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs and place on a plate, leaving space between.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs in batches and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
- In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté the chopped onion for 3-4 minutes until soft. Add minced garlic and sauté for another minute.
- Stir in pumpkin puree, chicken broth, and heavy cream. Bring to a gentle simmer for about 5 minutes.
- Season the sauce with chopped sage, nutmeg, and salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well.
- Return the meatballs to the skillet, ensuring they are submerged in the sauce. Cover and let simmer for 10-15 minutes.
- Serve the turkey meatballs hot, drizzled with the creamy pumpkin sage sauce.

Notes
For a thicker sauce, let it simmer uncovered during the final stages. Adjust seasoning as needed.
