Number Of Ingredients 22

1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1 large egg, beaten
1 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1 medium onion, chopped fine
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves, chopped
1/4 cup parmesan cheese or 1/4 cup romano cheese, grated
coarse salt
black pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 garlic cloves, crushed and chopped
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 (14 ounce) can chunky style crushed tomatoes
salt & freshly ground black pepper
4 crusty hoagie rolls (with or without sesame seeds)
1 (10 ounce) bag shredded provolone cheese or 1 (10 ounce) bag Italian cheese blend
shredded sweet basil or shredded spicy arugula leaf, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Place ground sirloin in a large mixing bowl and punch a well into the center of meat. Fill well with the egg, bread crumbs, onion, garlic, red pepper flakes, Worcestershire, parsley, cheese, and a little salt and pepper. Stir up meatball ingredients until well combined, don't overmix. Divide mix into 4 equal parts, roll each part into 4 balls and space equally onto a nonstick baking sheet. Put meatballs in oven and roast about 12 minutes. Break a meatball open and make sure meat is cooked through before removing from the oven.
  • Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add oil and garlic. When garlic starts sizzling, add herbs and crushed pepper. Allow oil to infuse for half a minute, then stir in the tomatoes and season sauce with salt and pepper. Bring sauce to a simmer, reduce heat, and simmer until meatballs are removed from oven.
  • Combine meatballs and sauce and pile into sub rolls, 4 meatballs per sub. Top with shredded cheese and place under subs under broiler to melt cheese. Top with shredded basil or arugula. Enjoy!
