Meatball Sandwich Ingredients
Method
Preparation Steps

Make the Meatballs
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined. Form the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.

Cook the Meatballs
In a large skillet, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 10-15 minutes.

Add Marinara Sauce
Once the meatballs are cooked, pour the marinara sauce over them in the skillet. Simmer for 5 minutes to heat the sauce and allow the flavors to meld.

Melt the Cheese
Place the assembled sandwich under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Watch closely to prevent burning.
