Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 eggs large
- ⅓ cup Italian breadcrumbs
- 3 tablespoons parmesan cheese grated
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley minced
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 3 cups marinara sauce
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese shredded
Instructions
- In a large bowl add ground beef, eggs, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, parsley and sea salt. Mix well.
- Place 12 round meatballs (about 3 tablespoons) into a lightly greased skillet and brown lightly on all sides on medium- medium-low heat.
- Pour sauce all over the meatballs and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook meatballs fully.
- Add cheese on top and broil in the oven to melt the cheese.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Transfer the meatballs and marinara sauce to a baking dish to melt the cheese if you don’t have an ovenproof skillet.
- Gently mix the meatball mixture to avoid overworking it, which can make the meatballs tough.
