Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Italian Meatballs.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
In a spacious mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, Italian seasoning, freshly chopped basil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until the mixture is harmonious.
Step 3
Next, gently fold in the ground beef and panko bread crumbs, using your hands or a spoon to combine the ingredients without overmixing.
Step 4
Aim to form about 40 meatballs, each roughly the size of a small golf ball, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
Step 5
Arrange the meatballs on ungreased, rimmed baking sheets, ensuring they have enough space to breathe.
Step 6
Slide the trays into the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, turning the meatballs halfway through for even cooking.
Step 7
They’re ready when they lose their pink hue, and an instant-read thermometer shows at least 160°F (70°C) in the center.
Step 8
Enjoy the delightful aroma wafting through your kitchen as these savory bites come to life!.
