The Best Meatball Recipe! - Gimme Some Oven

Inspiration: Gimme Some Oven

Ingredients

• 99% ground turkey
• 1 medium onion, minced
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup Italian breadcrumbs
• 1/3 cup milk
• 1 egg
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 cup finely-chopped fresh Italian herbs (I used half parsley, half basil)
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

1. Pre-heat the oven to 400°F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the breadcrumbs and milk until combined. Set mixture aside to soak for 5 to 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
3. Add the ground beef, ground pork, garlic, eggs, Parmesan, fresh herbs, and onion to the (same) mixing bowl. Sprinkle the oregano, salt, and black pepper evenly on top. Use your hands to mix the ingredients until evenly combined, being careful not to over-mix the ingredients.
4. Scoop and roll the mixture into 2-tablespoon balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
5. Bake for 10 minutes, flip, then bake for another 10 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer measures the internal temperature of the meatballs to be 165°F.
6. Serve meatballs immediately and enjoy!
