Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds ground sausage
2 large eggs
1 and 1/2 cups breadcrumbs
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup lukewarm water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees (F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a large bowl combine ground sausage, eggs, breadcrumbs, cheese, and garlic. Slowly add the water, a few tablespoons at a time, mixing with your hands until everything is just combined. Don't over mix here or it'll make the meatballs tough. The mixture should be very moist but still hold its shape when rolled into meatballs.
  • Using an ice cream scoop or large spoon, scoop about one tablespoon of meat into your palms and roll it into a ball. Place the ball on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with all of the meat.
  • Place the baking sheet in the oven to bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until they're cooked though.
  • Toss with your favorite sauce and serve!

This is a true man pleaser, think of it for TV game parties. Fresh marinara sauce makes all the difference in these hearty sandwiches. Look for it near the cheeses and fresh pasta at the supermarket.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE MEATBALLS

I developed this recipe as I was reviewing many other meatball recipes. The spices in the sweet Italian sausage give it the extra kick. These meatballs can be frozen for use later. Or used immediately in your favorite sauce. These are also a great appetizer with dipping sauce.
