Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit so it’s ready when your meatballs are formed.
  • In a big bowl, toss together the beef mince, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, egg, onion, garlic, parsley, oregano, salt, and pepper. Get your hands in there and mix it all up good.
  • Roll the mixture into meatballs about one inch across. Try to keep ’em uniform so they cook evenly.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to stop stickin' and place the meatballs side by side without crowding.
  • Pop that sheet in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes till they’re cooked through and got that nice browned look.
  • While meatballs bake, whip up your spicy mayo dip: combine ¼ cup mayo, 1 tablespoon sriracha, ½ teaspoon soy sauce, ¼ teaspoon sesame oil, and a pinch of garlic powder. Mix till smooth and chill if you want.
  • When the meatballs are done, give ’em a quick taste test — you should get a tender pull that melts in your mouth.
  • Serve ’em hot with that spicy mayo dip on the side for dunkin'. Enjoy every bite and watch everyone ask for seconds!

Notes

Serve with spicy mayo dip on the side. Try using pre-minced garlic and chopped onions to save time or swap out soy sauce and sesame oil for a pre-made Korean BBQ sauce.
