Delicious Lamb Meatballs Recipe for a Perfect Dinner

Ingredients

Servings:
8
  • 1 lb ground lamb (Preferably grass-fed)
  • 1 cup bread crumbs (Use fresh for better texture)
  • 1 large egg (Beaten)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp salt (Adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp black pepper (Freshly ground)
  • 1 cup fresh parsley (Chopped)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (For frying)

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    This ensures even cooking.
  2. Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine ground lamb, bread crumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, and parsley.

    Mix until just combined; do not overwork the meat.
  3. Form Meatballs

    Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.

    Use wet hands to prevent sticking.
  4. Heat Oil

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.

    Ensure the oil is hot before adding meatballs.
  5. Cook Meatballs

    Add meatballs to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

    Avoid overcrowding the skillet.
  6. Bake Meatballs

    Transfer browned meatballs to a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes.

    This ensures they are cooked through.
  7. Serve

    Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

    Serve with sauce or on a bed of rice.
