Ingredients
- 1 pound ground meat such as turkey, beef, chicken, pork, or a combination (see note 1)
- 1/2 cup bread crumbs or panko or rolled oats
- 1/3 cup onion finely chopped
- 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
- 1 egg
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano or basil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup. Coat a wire rack with nonstick spray and set on prepared baking sheet.
- In a large bowl, combine ground meat, bread crumbs, onion, parsley, eggs, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, basil, oregano, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper.
- Using a strong spatula or your hands (I like to wear latex gloves), mix well. Shape the mixture into 1-inch balls (you should have about 24 meatballs total).
- Arrange meatballs on rack, brush with oil, and bake until browned with crispy edges, about 15 to 20 minutes (an internal thermometer should read 165 degrees for 15 seconds).
