Meatballs

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, ground beef, bread crumbs, grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, minced garlic, chopped parsley, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Meatballs

    Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 2 inches in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Cook the Meatballs

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the meatballs in batches and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Tomato Sauce

    In the same skillet, add a jar of your favorite tomato sauce and bring to a simmer. Add the browned meatballs to the sauce and let them cook for an additional 15-20 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the meatballs hot, garnished with extra Parmigiano-Reggiano and fresh parsley if desired.
