Description
Easy Turkey Wrapped Mozzarella Bites with fresh basil and balsamic glaze make a flavorful party appetizer ready in 20 minutes with just four ingredients. These simple bites pair deli turkey with marinated mozzarella and basil for an impressive finger food.
Ingredients
- 4 ounces thinly sliced deli turkey breast
- 20 marinated mozzarella pearls, drained and patted dry
- 20 fresh basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
Instructions
- Drain the marinated mozzarella pearls in a colander and pat them completely dry with paper towels.
- Cut each slice of turkey breast in half lengthwise to create narrow strips approximately 1 inch wide.
- Lay one turkey strip flat on a clean cutting board.
- Place one basil leaf on the end of the turkey strip closest to you, then set one mozzarella pearl on top of the basil.
- Roll the turkey tightly around the basil and mozzarella, forming a compact bundle.
- Insert a wooden cocktail pick through the center of each roll to secure the layers.
- Repeat the process with remaining turkey strips, basil leaves, and mozzarella pearls.
- Arrange the finished bites on a serving platter and drizzle lightly with balsamic glaze just before serving.
Notes
- Patting the mozzarella dry removes excess oil, helping the turkey wrap stay secure.
- Use wooden cocktail picks to hold the rolls together for easy serving.
- This appetizer requires no cooking.
