Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 0.5 lb ground pork
- 1 egg
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 12 oz egg noodles
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp parsley, chopped
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, egg, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined; avoid overmixing.
Form the meat mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls (makes about 16-18 meatballs) and place them on a plate or tray.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs in a single layer, working in batches if necessary. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, turning carefully with tongs, until browned on all sides and cooked through. Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the noodles and return them to the pot.
Add the butter to the pot with the drained noodles. Stir until the butter is fully melted and coats the noodles evenly. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and gently toss to combine.
Divide the buttered noodles among individual plates or bowls. Top each serving with several cooked meatballs.
Optionally, garnish with additional Parmesan cheese and parsley before serving. Enjoy!
