1 lb ground beef
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 large onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 egg
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1 cup beef broth
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp olive oil
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, half of the chopped onion, garlic, egg, salt, pepper, and thyme. Mix well.
Form the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the remaining chopped onion and sauté until golden brown.
Add the meatballs to the skillet and brown on all sides.
Transfer the meatballs to a baking dish and pour beef broth and Worcestershire sauce over them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through.
Serve hot with the savory onion sauce drizzled on top.
Notes
For extra flavor, add a splash of white wine to the sauce.
These meatballs can be served with pasta or on a sub roll for a meatball sandwich.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
