Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef (80% lean)
- 0.5 lb Ground pork
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 Egg
- 2 cloves Minced garlic
- 2 tbsp Chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 cups Marinara sauce
- 4 Sub rolls
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 4 slices Provolone cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined, being careful not to over-mix.
Roll the mixture into meatballs about 1.5 inches in diameter, making approximately 16 meatballs.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the meatballs on all sides until browned, about 5 minutes total. You might need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Transfer the seared meatballs to a saucepan and pour marinara sauce over them. Simmer on low heat for 15-20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
While the meatballs cook, slice the sub rolls lengthwise, leaving one side attached to create a hinge. Lightly toast them in the preheated oven for 3-5 minutes.
Place 4 meatballs in each toasted sub roll and spoon some marinara sauce over the top.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the meatballs, then top each sub with a slice of provolone cheese.
Place the assembled subs on a baking sheet and return them to the oven. Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve the meatball subs hot and enjoy!
