Method

Meatballs

  1. 1

    Prepare Meatball Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and fresh parsley. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form Meatballs

    Shape the mixture into 4 equal-sized meatballs, about 1.5 inches in diameter.

  3. 3

    Cook Meatballs

    Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Add a little olive oil, then add the meatballs. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Meat Sauce

  1. 4

    Sauté Onions and Garlic

    In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once hot, add the diced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

  2. 5

    Make the Sauce

    Add the canned crushed tomatoes, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine and let simmer for about 10 minutes.

  3. 6

    Combine Meatballs and Sauce

    Return the cooked meatballs to the skillet with the sauce. Let them simmer together for another 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Garlic Bread

  1. 7

    Prepare Garlic Butter

    In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, garlic powder, and fresh parsley until well combined.

  2. 8

    Toast Garlic Bread

    Spread the garlic butter mixture on each slice of French bread. Place under a broiler (on low) for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Watch closely to prevent burning.

Serve

  1. 9

    Plate the Dish

    On a plate, serve 4 meatballs topped with the meat sauce. Add a side of your choice, and place 2 slices of garlic bread on the side. Don’t forget to add your chosen starter.
