Easy Meatball Recipe
MEATBALLS, to put into many great recipes. From pasta and marinara sauce to sweet and sour, soups and so much more.
Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 2 lbs ground beef
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1 teaspoon dry oregano
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- optional 1/4 cup grated parmesan or romano cheese
Instructions
- Place all the ingredients into a bowl, mix well and portion out to the size meatball you'd like.
- I often make them 2 tablespoon-sized for easy consumption.
- Cook meatballs in a skillet on the stove, or bake them in the oven on a baking sheet at 350°
- until the meat is 135°.
- Turn the meatballs halfway through cooking to ensure they cook evenly.
Notes
the leaner the beef the more liquid you may want to add (you can add more milk at a tablespoon at a time and an additional egg if you use 90% lean beef and if it appears to be dry, no juice. But mix it first and add only if needed
