Sicilian Meatballs image

Family recipe that goes way back. My mother said her uncle would always take a little of the meat and fry her a "hamburger" in the skillet as the rest were in the oven. It's a lot of work, but the results are way worth it. If you are going to make this, make a bunch and freeze it!!!! LOL

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs ground beef
1 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
3 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1/4 cup fresh parsley
4 small garlic cloves
2 small onions
1/8 cup water
1 egg
1/4 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Mince or press the garlic, and chop the parsley into fine pieces (or you can cut the measurement and use dried parsley flakes).
  • Grate the onion and place in a bowl.
  • Add all of the ingredients above, except for the olive oil, and mix together in the bowl.
  • Form balls into the size of golf balls and then dip your hand (or brush) in the oil and then rub it on the balls.
  • Place on cookie sheet and brown at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
  • I usually add these to my marinara sauce, but you can eat them many other ways as well!
