Time 35m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 egg
¼ teaspoon oregano
1 tablespoon water
½ cup panko bread crumbs
½ pound 80% lean ground beef
1 (1.4 ounce) package dry French onion soup mix (such as Knorr®), divided
1 cup water, divided
1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
½ cup grated Gruyere cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Set a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Combine egg, oregano, and 1 tablespoon water in a bowl and beat to combine. Add in panko and ground beef. Sprinkle 1/2 of the French onion mix on top and mix until thoroughly combined. Shape mixture into meatballs. Place meatballs on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until meatballs are cooked through, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add remaining French onion mix to a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in 1/4 cup water until well combined. Allow to thicken. Whisk in another 1/4 cup water and allow to thicken. Repeat 2 more times until water is used up. Mix in cream and Gruyere cheese, stirring until cheese is melted. Serve cheese sauce with meatballs.

I found these meatballs to be a bit bland. I think I would add more spices next time, maybe some garlic powder or onion powder.

These meatballs were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add more liquid next time, maybe some beef broth or tomato sauce.
