Ingredients
- Meatballs:
- 1 1/2 lbs ground beef
- 1/4 cup finely minced yellow onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup Italian or plain breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- Meatball Gravy:
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 medium yellow onion, quartered and cut into half inch slices
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups low-sodium beef broth
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Chopped fresh thyme
Instructions
- Gently mix ground beef, minced yellow onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire Sauce, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Using a 1 1/2 tablespoon scoop, form meatballs and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Brown the meatballs in batches, adding more oil if needed. Remove meatballs to a plate and cover to keep warm.
- In the same skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add sliced onions and cook until soft and lightly browned, about 7-10 minutes. Sprinkle with garlic powder and flour, stirring constantly for 2 minutes.
- Gradually add beef broth, stirring continuously. Simmer until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Return meatballs to the skillet, simmer for 8-10 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh thyme.
