Description
Delicious low-carb meatballs made with savory beef and aromatic herbs, perfect for a ketogenic lifestyle.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 large egg
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup sugar-free marinara sauce
- Olive oil for frying
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine ground beef, almond flour, Parmesan cheese, parsley, egg, garlic, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Mix the ingredients until well combined to form a cohesive mixture. Use your hands or a spoon to ensure everything is evenly distributed, then form the mixture into balls about 1 inch in diameter.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the meatballs, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook until browned on all sides, approximately 8-10 minutes.
- Pour the sugar-free marinara sauce over the meatballs and let them simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully. Serve hot.
Notes
Serve warm drizzled with marinara sauce and garnished with parsley or Parmesan cheese. Pairs wonderfully with zoodles or cauliflower rice.
