Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, combine the beef, egg, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, onion, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
  • With a meat baller or a medium spring-loaded cookie scoop, scoop a rounded ball of the meat, about 1 ½ tablespoons, and form into a meatball. Repeat with the remaining meat mixture. You should get about 20 meatballs. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook for 5–7 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides. Remove meatballs from the pot and set aside.
  • Serve with your favorite marinara.

Notes

  • My Top Tip: Mix and form the meatballs with wet hands. It keeps them from sticking and is the best way to make sure the ingredients fully combine.
  • Storage: Store leftover meatballs in an airtight container in the fridge for 3–4 days. To reheat, bake in the oven at 350ºF until warmed through.
  • Freezing: You can freeze the meatballs either before or after cooking. To freeze before cooking, place the formed meatballs on a baking sheet lined with wax paper, flash freeze for 1 hour, and transfer to a freezer bag or container. Or, to freeze after cooking, place them in a freezer bag or container. They'll last in the freezer for up to 3 months.
