Today the agents are bringing to you guys some meat. Some balls. Some meatballs. Serve them with whatever you think it’s best. We suggest something like a cheese/alfredo sauce, because you do not want to overpower the meatball flavor.
What you’re gonna need:
-Oven
-Stove top
-2 Tbsp measuring cookie/ice cream scoop
-Baking sheet that has edges/sides (Please DO NOT bake this in a completely flat baking sheet).
Ingredients for the meatballs:
-1 Tbsp olive oil
-1 Tbsp unsalted butter
-220g yellow or white onions, finally chopped
-1 Tbsp minced garlic
-2/3 cup pesto
-1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
-1 egg
-1/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
-1/2 tsp salt
-1/8 tsp ground black pepper
-1 1/4 lb ground beef
Instructions:
1- Over low heat, cook the onions, minced garlic, olive oil and butter. Cook it for about 10 minutes, or until the onions are very soft. Set it aside and let it cool down to room temperature before you do the following steps.

2- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. In a big bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, cheese, egg, salt, pesto and pepper. Make sure that everything is well combined. Add in the beef and the sautéed onions. Mix it thoroughly, again, until very well combined.
3-Using a 2 Tbsp cookie scoop, put the meatballs on the baking sheet. You don’t have to give them too much space between them, one inch of a gap will do.
4- Bake them for about 25 minutes. If you are not absolutely sure that your meatballs are done, just cut one of them open. If your meatball is not pink on the inside anymore, that means that it’s done. Move them away from the oil that seeps out while they are baking. Serve them with whatever you want.
That’s it for today!
We’ll see you guys soon!
