Garlicky Meatballs
 
Ingredients
  • 1.2-1.3 pounds of ground beef (I use 95% Beef, 5% fat)

  • ½ cup chopped fresh basil
  • 3-4 garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed black pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, combine beef, panko, basil, garlic, salt, pepper, and eggs.
  2. With your hands mix all the ingredients together so that everything is mixed in.
  3. In a cast iron skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
  4. Form the meatball mix in 24 meatballs.
  5. Cook 12 at a time in skillet turning ever 2-3 minutes, cooking all sides.
  6. Once meatballs are cooked, place on a paper towel lined plate and cook then next batch.
