Heat remaining olive oil in a deep sided medium sized skillet. Add the turkey meatballs and cook for about 2 minutes until browned. flip over and cook other side for about 2 minutes. Remove all the meatballs from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Set aside while you make the sauce.
Make the sauce
In the reserved skillet set over medium heat, add the olive oil, garlic and onions. Reduce heat to medium low and cook until soft and browned, around 5-8 minutes.
Push onions to the side of the pan and add the butter, and stir until it melts. Add the paprika and Dijon mustard. Stir well until it's well combined. Add the flour and stir in fast until a paste forms, about 30 seconds to a minute.
Start adding your chicken broth gradually, whisking as you go to get out all the lumps. After about 2 minutes you will have a smooth sauce. Bring to a simmer.
Add the browned meatballs to the sauce and give a really good stir. Add the sour cream, salt and black pepper and stir well. Cover, reduce heat to low and leave to finish cooking for about 15 minutes.
Serve topped with fresh parsley and lots of black pepper if desired. Suggested serving with wide pasta noodles.
