Meatball Ingredients

Method

Meatball Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and egg. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Form Meatballs

    Roll the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  4. 4

    Bake Meatballs

    Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through and browned.

  5. 5

    Add Marinara Sauce

    In a large skillet, heat the marinara sauce over medium heat. Once the meatballs are cooked, add them to the sauce and simmer for 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Top with Cheese

    Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the meatballs and cover until the cheese is melted, about 3-5 minutes.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the meatballs hot, topped with additional marinara sauce if desired.
