Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and beaten egg. Using your hands, gently mix all the ingredients together until well combined.
-
Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the meatballs in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Brown the meatballs on all sides, turning occasionally, for about 6-8 minutes until cooked through.
-
Once all the meatballs are browned, remove them from the skillet and set them aside.
-
In the same skillet, pour in the marinara sauce and bring it to a simmer.
-
Return the meatballs to the skillet, coating them with the sauce. Let them simmer in the sauce for an additional 5-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
-
Once the meatballs are heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly, they are ready to serve.
-
Serve the Rustys Meatballs hot, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese and parsley if desired. Enjoy them on their own, over pasta, or in a crusty bread roll for a delicious meatball sub.
