Ingredients
For the meatballs
- 1.5 lb ground beef
- 3/4 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 oz onion soup mix (1 package) divided in half
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
For the dish
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 large yellow onions
- 2 tbsp butter
- 3/4 cup beef broth or water
- 4 oz Swiss cheese sliced or shredded
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375˚F.
- To make meatballs: Combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, half the onion soup mix (about 1 tbsp), worcestershire, milk and eggs.Roll into 18 meatballs, about 1.5-2 inches each.
- Heat a large, oven proof skillet over medium high heat. Add the olive oil and once it is hot, lay the meatballs in the pan. Cook on each side for 2-3 minutes, or until seared. Then remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside (they will finish cooking later.
- Add the onions, butter, 1/4 cup broth, and remaining onion soup mix and reduce the heat to medium low. Allow the onions to cook for 8-12 minutes, stirring regularly. You can add broth as they cook to keep moisture in the skillet if needed. They should become translucent and caramelized once done.
- Place the meatballs back into the skillet, add the remaining broth, and top with swiss cheese then bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, or until meatballs are done (160˚F internal temperature.)Optional: Turn the oven to broil for the last 1-2 minutes of the cooking time to toast the cheese more heavily.
- Once done, garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve over thick sliced garlic toast, or mashed potatoes.
