Prep 10 min Cook 10 min Serves 4 Source

Ingredients

  • 1  pound lean ground beef
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup plain breadcrumbs
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons finely grated onion
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, combine the beef, egg, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, onion, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.

  2. 2

    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.
