Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 0.5 pound Italian sausage
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cups Marinara sauce
- 4 Sub rolls
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, Italian sausage, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined but do not overmix.
Portion the mixture into 1 1/2-inch meatballs and roll them gently between your palms to form uniform balls.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides.
Pour marinara sauce over the meatballs in the skillet. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the meatballs are fully cooked and reach an internal temperature of 160°F (70°C).
While the meatballs are cooking, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Split the sub rolls lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through, and place them on a baking sheet.
Once the meatballs are ready, spoon two to three meatballs along with some marinara sauce into each sub roll.
Top the meatballs with shredded mozzarella cheese and place the sandwiches in the oven. Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Optional: Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious meatball sub sandwiches!
