This is the recipe for easy homemade meatballs that my mother used growing up. I now make them for my family, and my picky husband loves them. Serve with your choice of pasta.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 egg
- ½ cup Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 (28 ounce) jar marinara sauce
Directions
Step 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.
Step 2
Shape into 1- to 2-inch balls.
Step 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.
Step 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.
Recipe Tip
You can use your favorite marinara sauce.
