Equipment

  • 12" All-Clad Stainless Skillet

Ingredients
  

For Meatballs

  • pound ground beef (lean)
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs (Panko)
  • 1 whole egg
  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • ¼ cup mustard (coarse grain)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • ½ 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 cup beef broth (or chicken broth, low sodium or no sodium added)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon seasoning salt
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Meatball Preparation

  • 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. If you're using a large skillet all meatballs should fit in one batch otherwise, you might have to fry them in a couple batches. Cook the meatballs on all sides, add more oil if needed. Remove meatballs from skillet and set aside.
  • To the same skillet add butter and melt. Add onion and cook until onion is 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. If the sauce is too thick add a bit more beef broth. Taste for seasoning and adjust as necessary.
  • 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

The meatballs should be tender and do not overmix. If the gravy thickens too much, stir in a splash of beef broth to adjust the consistency. Can be made ahead of time and reheated.
