Steps to follow
1
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, onion, garlic, egg, milk, salt, pepper, oregano, red pepper flakes, and parsley. Mix until evenly combined but do not overmix to keep the meatballs tender.
2
Shape the meat mixture into 1.5-inch balls, making sure they are evenly sized for uniform cooking.
3
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the meatballs on all sides to develop a nice crust. You may need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
4
Once all meatballs are browned, return them to the skillet and pour in the marinara sauce. Cover and simmer on low heat for 10 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through.
5
Serve the meatballs hot with additional sauce from the pan. They can be enjoyed on their own, with spaghetti, or as a meatball sub sandwich. Garnish with extra grated Parmesan and chopped parsley if desired.
