12 servings
- •3 pounds ground beef
- •3 eggs
- •½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- •¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
- •½ cup dry bread crumbs
- •1 tablespoon minced garlic
- •1 tablespoon onion powder
- •1 teaspoon salt
- •1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- •1 teaspoon dried oregano
- •1 teaspoon dried basil
- •1 pound sliced bacon, cut in half crosswise
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix ground beef, eggs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, bread crumbs, garlic, onion powder, salt, black pepper, oregano, and basil in a large bowl until thoroughly combined. Form meat mix into 2-inch meatballs.
- Wrap half a bacon slice around a meatball; turn the meatball around 45 degrees and wrap a second half-slice of bacon around the meatball so the meat is enclosed by bacon. Repeat, forming 12 meatballs and wrapping each one in 2 half-slices of bacon. Place wrapped meatballs onto the prepared baking sheet with seam sides down.
- Bake in the preheated oven until meatballs are no longer pink inside and bacon is crisp, about 45 minutes. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of a meatball should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Pour off excess grease.
