Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Cook the wide egg noodles according to the package to el dente. Drain and let cool.
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, bread crumbs, parsley flakes, minced garlic, minced onion, egg, salt and pepper.
- Stir mixture with a wooden spoon until well combined. Use clean hands to roll the mixture into meatballs about 1 ½ inches in size (it should make about 20-24 meatballs).
- Put the olive oil into a skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add meatballs, in batches, and cook until all sides are browned, about 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Drain the excess grease out of the skillet.
- Turn the heat down to medium and Melt butter in the skillet. Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in beef broth and cook, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened, about 1-2 minutes.
- Stir in sour cream, heavy cream, salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through and thickened, about 8-10 minutes.
- Add the cooked noodle to a 9x13 inch casserole dish.
- Spread the meatballs evenly over the top of the noodles.
- Evenly pour the gravy over the dish.
- Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 min or until heated through.
Notes
- FRIDGE: Transfer leftovers to an airtight container or wrap the baking dish tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Then store in the fridge for 2-3 days.
- FREEZER: Leftovers, stored in an airtight container, can be frozen for up to 3 months. For best results, allow to thaw before reheating.
- Keep in mind that the texture of the noodles may change a bit after freezing. And the longer you store this dish in the fridge, the more the noodles will soak up the sauce. Feel free to add a bit broth when reheating to keep the leftovers from being too dry.
