INGREDIENTS
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1 jar (24 oz.) marinara sauce
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped

Meatballs:
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

First, combine all the ingredients for the meatballs in a large mixing bowl and mix well with your hands

Then, take about 1 mixture of meatballs the size of a golf ball, roll it in your hands to make meatballs. I used an ice cream scoop

Over medium-high heat, brown the meatballs in batches until evenly browned, about 5 to 8 minutes

Remove the meatballs and drain on paper towels. Drain excess oil from pan

Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the marinara sauce into the pan

Return the meatballs to the pan and roll them to coat with marinara sauce. 
Simmer for 5 minutes or until the internal temperature of the meatballs is 165 degrees F

Garnish with mozzarella cheese. Cover and simmer until cheese melts or grill at 450 degrees F for 3-5 minutes for golden cheese

Hot dish and serve sprinkled with chopped fresh basil

Happy Cooking Time.
