Equipment

  • 12" All-Clad Stainless Skillet

Ingredients
  

For Meatballs

  • 1.5 pound ground beef lean
  • 0.5 cup breadcrumbs I used Panko
  • 1 each egg
  • 0.25 cup ketchup
  • 0.25 cup mustard coarse grain
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for frying

For Gravy

  • 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour or cornstarch

  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

Cooking Instructions

  • Add all the meatball ingredients (excluding the olive oil) to a large bowl and mix well, use your hands. Shape into 1 inch meatballs. You should get about 30 meatballs.
  • Add the olive oil to a large skillet and heat over medium to high heat. Add meatballs and cook, ensuring to cook them on all sides. Remove meatballs from skillet and set aside.
  • To the same skillet add butter and melt. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the onion and stir. Cook for about 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste. Add broth and remaining gravy ingredients to skillet, and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes, sauce should thicken.
  • When the gravy is done add the meatballs back to the skillet and toss them around so they're covered in the gravy. Garnish with parsley.

Notes

I make the meatballs and gravy the day before if I know we’ve got a busy night coming up. Store them separately, then reheat gently on the stove with a bit of broth. Tastes just as good, maybe better, the next day.
