- •1 lb ground beef
- •1 large egg
- •½ yellow onion, finely diced
- •½ cup bread crumbs
- •½ cup grated parmesan cheese
- •¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped
- •3 cloves garlic, minced
- •1 teaspoon salt
- •½ teaspoon pepper
- •1 teaspoon dried oregano
- •1 tablespoon oil, for cooking
- •11 oz pizza dough
- •½ cup marinara sauce
- •1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- •olive oil, for brushing
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, egg, onion, bread crumbs, Parmesan, parsley, garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano.
- Roll the mixture into golf ball-sized meatballs.
- In a medium cast iron or nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat.
- Working in batches cook the meatballs until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
- On a sheet of parchment paper, press the pizza dough into a large circle, about 12 inches (30-cm) in diameter.
- Cut 8 evenly spaced 2-inch (5-cm) slits on the edge of the dough.
- Place one meatball on the edge of the dough between 2 slits. Pull the corners of the dough around the meatball and press into the dough, sealing the meatball in a dough pocket. Repeat with the remaining meatballs.
- With the help of a friend, transfer the pizza and parchment to a baking sheet.
- Spoon marinara sauce into the middle of the pizza and spread evenly.
- Sprinkle mozzarella over the sauce, or add your favorite pizza toppings! Brush the dough around the meatballs with olive oil.
- Bake for 25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the dough is golden and just cooked through.
- Slice with a pizza cutter and serve.
- Enjoy!
