Meat Balls Oven Baked - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 pound lean ground beef (I used 88%)
    1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs
    1/4 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
    2 garlic cloves, pressed (or minced)
    1/2 small onion, grated (or minced)
    2 tablespoons marinara
    1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
    1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
    1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    1/4 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
    1 large egg, lightly beaten
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 375\u00b0. Prepare a baking sheet by lining with parchment paper.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients. Mix well, do not over mix or you will have tough meatballs.

    Using a 2 tablespoon scoop, portion out meat and place on baking sheet. After all meatballs have been scooped onto tray, roll into balls.

    COOK'S NOTE: If you lightly wet your hands the meatballs will form better and crack less.

    Bake for 20-22 minutes.

    Remove and transfer to sauce or serve immediately.
