Spaghetti and Meatballs

Ingredients

Meatballs:

1 pound ground beef

1 large egg , beaten

¼ cup breadcrumbs

¼ cup grated parmesan cheese

Onion flakes

2 tablespoons minced garlic

¾ teaspoon Kosher salt

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian flat leaf parsley, optional

Sauce:

Large jar of spaghetti sauce

1/4 cup red wine

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Heat a small amount of olive oil in a cast iron skillet.

In a large bowl, combine the meat, egg, breadcrumbs, cheese, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and parsley, if using.

Use a medium cookie scoop or spoon to scoop the meat mixture. Form into 1 1/2-inch balls and place in the hot skillet.

Roll the meatballs around until a nice crust forms on all sides. Transfer the skillet to the oven.

Bake uncovered 10-12 minutes, or until no longer pink in the middle.

Serve with pasta, sauce, and Parmesan cheese.
