Meatballs

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meatball Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Meatballs

    Using your hands, shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1.5 inches in diameter. This recipe makes about 3 large meatballs.

  3. 3

    Cook the Meatballs

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Serve with Marinara Sauce

    In a separate saucepan, heat marinara sauce over low heat. Once the meatballs are cooked, place them in the marinara sauce and let them simmer for a few minutes. Serve the meatballs in a bowl with extra sauce.
