Joanna Gaines Meatballs Ingredients
- 1½ cups panko bread crumbs
- 1 cup whole milk
- ½ pound ground beef (92% lean)
- ½ pound ground pork
- ½ cup diced yellow onion
- ⅓ cup shredded Parmesan cheese (about 2½ ounces)
- 1 large egg
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil (optional for garnish)
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
How To Make Joanna Gaines Meatballs
- Prepare the Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the panko and milk. Let it sit for 4-7 minutes so the panko can absorb the milk. Add the beef, pork, onion, Parmesan, egg, garlic, basil, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Mix well with your hands until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Shape the Meatballs: Roll the meat mixture into ¼- to ½-inch balls and place them on a plate lined with paper towels.
- Preheat the Skillet: Heat olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat.
- Cook the Meatballs: Add half of the meatballs to the skillet. Turn them occasionally to sear all sides until they are dark brown and crusty. Place the cooked meatballs on the paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining meatballs.
- Final Cooking: Return all the meatballs to the skillet and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until they are fully cooked through.
