Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 0.5 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley, chopped
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, gluten-free breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped onion, parsley, minced garlic, egg, milk, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly using clean hands or a spoon until well combined. Be careful not to overmix, as it can make the meatballs tough.
Shape the mixture into 1.5-inch meatballs and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the meatballs in batches, and sear them on each side for about 2 minutes, until browned all over. This step adds extra flavor.
Transfer the seared meatballs back to the baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 160°F (72°C).
Remove the meatballs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve hot with your favorite gluten-free pasta, in a sandwich, or as an appetizer with marinara sauce.
