  • Author: ezzaytouniothmane@gmail.com
  • Total Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 pound ground beef
– 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
– 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1/4 cup chopped parsley
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 large egg
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– 2 tablespoons olive oil (for frying)


Instructions

Follow this simple step-by-step guide to create your meatballs and gravy that will impress everyone at the dinner table:

1. Prepare the Meatball Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, minced garlic, egg, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

2. Form Meatballs: With your hands, shape the mixture into meatballs about 1.5 inches in diameter. Place them on a plate or tray as you go.

3. Heat Oil: In a large skillet, over medium heat, add olive oil. Allow the oil to heat for a few minutes.

4. Fry Meatballs: Carefully add the meatballs to the hot skillet. Cook them for about 5-7 minutes, turning them to brown evenly on all sides.

5. Remove Meatballs: Once browned, transfer the meatballs to a plate and set aside. They will finish cooking in the gravy.

6. Make the Gravy: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low. Add butter and let it melt. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, until golden and bubbly.

7. Add Liquid: Slowly pour in the beef broth while continuously whisking to avoid lumps. Mix in the Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper, and let the gravy simmer until it thickens.

8. Return Meatballs: Place the meatballs back in the skillet, spooning gravy over them. Continue cooking on low for about 10 minutes, until fully heated and cooked through.
