Delicious Italian Meatballs Recipes

HOMEMADE ITALIAN MEATBALLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix all of the ingredients together.
• Roll into 1 1/2" balls and place them closely together in 9x13 pans that have been sprayed with cooking spray. **You can place a wire rack on the baking sheet and bake the meatballs on the rack so that the fat drips down if you'd like.**
• Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through.
• Serve the meatballs immediately with sauce and spaghetti, put them in the slow cooker along with sauce to have them simmer, or freeze the meatballs in Ziploc bags to use another time.
• If you freeze the meatballs, allow them to cool completely before packaging them.

Steps:

• Heat remaining olive oil in a small saute pan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in the hot oil until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic and Italian seasoning; continue to saute until garlic is softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool enough to handle.

BEST ITALIAN MEATBALL RECIPE

Steps:

• Place cubed white bread and evaporated milk into a large mixing bowl, tossing to combine. Allow to sit while you prepare other ingredients. Bread will start to disintegrate.
• Add micro grated onion and garlic to bread, mix well. Add parsley through ground beef bouillon, mixing until combined.
• Working in 3 rounds, add 1/3 of each type of meat, blending with your fingers until it just comes together until everything is combined.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Take a good amount of meat and toss back and forth between your hands to pack. Meatballs should be approximately 2-3 inches wide (I like big meatballs!)
• Place onto a broiler pan, make sure meatballs are not touching. Bake for 20 minutes, placing on broil for the last 2 minutes of cooking.
• Remove and either allow to cool. Freeze or simmer in your favorite marinara sauce.
