Italian meatballs are a classic dish that bring rich flavors and hearty satisfaction to the table. This recipe combines both ground beef and ground pork for a perfect blend of taste and texture. Ideal for a main course or a versatile addition to pasta dishes, these meatballs are sure to become a staple in your meal rotation.
- Soak the bread crumbs in milk to keep the meatballs tender and moist.
- Finely chop the onion and garlic to ensure even distribution of flavors.
- Use fresh parsley for a burst of color and freshness.
- Mix the ingredients just until combined; overmixing can make the meatballs tough.
- Consider baking the meatballs in the oven on a wire rack to allow excess fat to drip away for a leaner dish.
- For extra flavor, brown the meatballs in a skillet before finishing them in the oven or simmering them in marinara sauce.
Once you've followed these steps, you'll have a delicious batch of Italian meatballs ready to serve. Whether enjoyed on their own, with pasta, or as part of a sub, these meatballs are as versatile as they are tasty. Enjoy the flavors of Italy from the comfort of your own kitchen!
