Ingredients
For the meatballs:
- 1.25 lbs lean ground beef
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano

- 1/2 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

- 1 1/2 cups arborio rice
- 3 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 2 zucchini
- 1/2 cup Grape or Cherry Tomatoes halved
- 1/4 cup Dill minced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- In a bowl, combine all meatball ingredients and a tablespoon of water. Once combined, shape the mixture into balls (2-3 inches in diameter)
- In a large skillet over high heat, heat the olive oil and place meatballs in the pan, Cook until browned (2-3 minutes on each side)
- Pour the rice and chicken broth into the pan with the rest of the ingredients, minus the zucchini, tomatoes, lemon juice and dill
- Bring to a boil then cover and place it in the oven to bake until the rice has absorbed all of the liquid (25 minutes or so)
- Slice and quarter the zucchini and place it into the pan. Cover it and put it back into the oven until the zucchini is cooked all the way through, about 5 minutes
- Once done cooking, take the pan out of the oven and stir the lemon juice and dill into the rice. Place the halved grape tomatoes on top and serve immediately
- Enjoy!
