In a bowl, add the yogurt, panko and water. Mix until well combined.

Add the ground lamb, fresh parsley, fresh mint, egg yolk, ground cumin, ground coriander, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Mix until combined.

Form the mixture into 1½ inch lamb meatballs, about the size of golf balls.

In a large skillet over medium heat, add the oil and heat until shimmering. Add the meatballs to the skillet and cook until well browned on all sides, about 5 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to keep the meatballs from burning.

Add the chicken broth or water to the skillet and cover the skillet with a lid. Cook until the meatballs are cooked through, about 2-3 minutes.

Garnish the lamb meatballs with fresh parsley and serve alongside tzatziki. Enjoy!
