Lamb Meatballs
These Greek style lamb meatballs are juicy, flavorful, and ready in just 30 minutes! With tender ground lamb, dried oregano, cumin ground, and feta cheese, they're a delicious weeknight dinner or easy lunch!
How to make:
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Prepare your cast iron skillet, spray with Acacado oil or oilve oil. If you do not have a cast iron skillet and can not prepare this on the stove, you can use a baking sheet and cook in the oven at 425 for 20-25 minutes.
Add all of the ingredients to a large bowl, and use your hands to mix until fully combined, but be careful not to overwork the meat.
Make 2 tablespoon size balls and gently roll them in your hands to get a perfect round shape. Then place them about 1 inch apart on your cast iron skillet. You should end up with roughly 15-20 lamb meatballs.
On medium heat, brown each side (about 2-4 min) and flip. Once both sides are browned you can pop into your oven for 10-15 minutes. The lamb meatballs should be browned and reach an internal temperature of 160°F.
