Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground beef
- 250 grams ground pork
- 60 grams almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 1 medium, finely chopped onion
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped fresh basil
- 1 teaspoon, dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, and almond flour.
Add the egg, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, basil, oregano, salt, and black pepper to the mixture.
Using clean hands, mix all ingredients well until thoroughly combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can make the meatballs tough.
Form the mixture into evenly sized meatballs, about 1.5 inches in diameter. You should get approximately 18-20 meatballs.
Brush each meatball with a little bit of olive oil to prevent sticking to the grill.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Ensure the grates are clean and lightly oiled.
Place the meatballs on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, turning occasionally, until they are nicely browned and cooked through.
Transfer the grilled meatballs to a serving platter and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the meatballs warm, garnished with extra parsley or alongside your favorite Paleo sides.
