📝 Instructions

9 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, gluten-free breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, minced garlic, grated onion, and beaten egg.

3

Season the mixture with salt and black pepper. Mix everything thoroughly using your hands until fully combined.

4

Lightly wet your hands to prevent sticking, then form the meat mixture into meatballs, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

5

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs and gently brown them on all sides, about 5 minutes total.

6

Transfer the browned meatballs back to the lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.

7

Bake the meatballs for 15 minutes, or until they are fully cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).

8

Remove from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

9

Serve the gluten-free meatballs with your favorite gluten-free pasta, sauce, or as a tasty appetizer.
