Ingredients
Scale
- Two pounds of ground beef, lean
- One cup of panko breadcrumbs
- Two large eggs, lightly beaten
- One large white onion, minced
- One tablespoon of minced garlic
- One tablespoon of olive oil
- One teaspoon of caraway seeds
- One teaspoon of black pepper
- One teaspoon of salt
- Half teaspoon of red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Combine the ground beef with the eggs, breadcrumbs, onion, pepper, garlic, red pepper flakes, and caraway seeds. Then, gently mix the ingredients with your hands until they incorporate.
- Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper, scoop one to one-and-a-half tablespoons of the beef mixture and form it into a ball between your palms. Place the meatball on the lined baking pan and repeat the process until all the beef mixture is used.
- Place a non-stick skillet on medium-high heat and add the oil. When it starts shimmering, add the meatballs in batches, so the pan isn’t overcrowded.
- Cook the meatballs until fully browned on all sides, for about 10 to 12 minutes. You may also check for an internal temperature of 160F with a meat thermometer. Then, remove the meatballs with a slotted spoon and use them as desired.
