Description
These homemade meatballs are easy to make with ground beef and simple Italian-inspired ingredients and take less than 30 minutes to cook.
Ingredients
•
1 pound ground beef
•
1 egg
•
1/2 cup Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
•
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
•
4 teaspoons garlic powder
•
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
•
2 teaspoons olive oil
•
1 (28 ounce) jar marinara sauce
Directions
1
Combine beef and egg in a large bowl. Add bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix together, but do not overmix, as it will get tough.
2
Shape into 1- to 2-inch balls.
3
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook meatballs in the hot skillet until browned and no longer pink in the centers, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
4
Meanwhile, heat marinara sauce in a pot over medium-low heat. Add cooked meatballs to sauce and let simmer for added flavor, about 15 minutes.
