These cheese-filled Italian meatballs are a delightful twist on a classic dish, perfect for a comforting meal.
Combine the egg, parsley, garlic, oregano, pepper, salt, ground pork, and ground beef in a large bowl until well mixed.
Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can make the meatballs tough.
Cut the mozzarella cheese into small cubes.
Ensure the cheese cubes are uniform in size for even cooking.
Divide the meat mixture into portions and shape each portion around a cheese cube to form meatballs.
Wet your hands slightly to prevent the meat from sticking while shaping.
Cook the meatballs in a skillet over medium heat until browned on all sides.
Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
Heat the marinara sauce in a saucepan and add the cooked meatballs, simmering until heated through.
Simmer gently to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve the meatballs over cooked pasta and garnish with fresh parsley or Parmesan cheese.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
