Meatball Boats



Mum will occasionally find a recipe that looks really good.


Ingredients

1 lb. ground beef

1 large egg

1/3 cup breadcrumbs

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 Tbsp. chopped parsley

Salt & pepper

1 Tbsp. olive oil

2 cup marinara sauce

4 crusty Italian sandwich rolls

12 slices provolone

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella

1/4 cup shredded parmesan


Stuff you will need

Cookie sheet

Parchment paper

Cutting board with knife


Directions

Preheat oven to 375°F. 


Cover your cookie sheet with parchment paper, or spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray.


Meatballs

In a large bowl, combine ground beef with egg, breadcrumbs, parmesan, garlic, and parsley.


Season with salt and pepper. Mix well.


Form into 12 evenly sized meatballs.


In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil.


Cook meatballs until seared on all sides, about 4 minutes. Add marinara sauce, gently stir, and cover with a lid.


Turn the heat down to simmer until meatballs are no longer pink, about 8-10 minutes more. Internal temperature of the meatballs should be 160°F.


Prepare the Bread Boats


Cut a long rectangle through the top of the bread loaf and hollow the top of your hoagie roll out to make a boat.


Lay three slices of provolone over the roll to cover the hollowed-out area and bake for 5 minutes, until melted. 


Then place four meatballs on top of the cheese in a row.

Spoon marinara over the meatballs. Sprinkle the mozzarella equally over the meatballs. Then sprinkle the parmesan.


Place in the oven and bake 6-8 minutes more.
