Ingredients
- 1 pound or 450g of turkey/chicken mince
- 1 pound or 450g of veal or lean beef mince
- 4 garlic cloves
- 30g of chopped parsley
- 30g of chopped chives
- 2 whole eggs
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- Use my versatile tomato sauce recipe or two 12 oz / 350 g jars of good quality pre-made tomato sauce
Directions
- In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients together and use your hands to combine them well.
- Form medium size meatballs in the palm of your hands and place them on a tray.
- Heat the olive oil in a deep pan on medium to high heat and sear the meatballs for 3-5 minutes. Make sure they are brown on all sides. You can use tongues to turn them over. Once seated, remove them from the pan and place them back on the tray.
- In the same pan, heat the tomato sauce on medium and add the meatballs. Once the sauce is simmering, turn the heat down to low-medium and cover the pan. Cook for 12-15 minutes, until they are cooked through. Stir them gently with a wooden spoon a couple of times.
- Your meatballs are ready to be enjoyed! You can serve them with broccoli, green beans, zucchini noodles, or any vegetables of your choice from the green list!
