Ingredients
- 12 ounces Spaghetti
- 3 cups marinara sauce homemade or store-bought
- 2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
For the meatballs
- 8 ounces ground beef
- 8 ounces ground pork
- 1 large egg beaten
- ¼ cup panko
- ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
- Pinch of nutmeg
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9×9 baking dish or coat with nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl, combine beef, pork, egg, Panko, Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, allspice and nutmeg; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Using a wooden spoon or clean hands, stir until well combined. Roll the mixture into 1 1/4-to-1 1/2-inch meatballs, forming about 18-20 meatballs.
- Heat olive oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add meatballs, in batches, and cook until all sides are browned, about 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; set aside.
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions; drain well and stir in marinara sauce.
- Add pasta to the prepared baking dish and top with meatballs; sprinkle with mozzarella. Place into oven and bake until bubbly and heated through, about 15-20 minutes.
- Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.
