Dina Deleasa Instagram – What was for dinner? These lamb meatballs that baked in 15 minutes! While they were in the oven I made a yogurt sauce and chopped up some pitted greek olives. This made for the most delicious bed for the meatballs to sit on top of! What makes it even better is smashing them up and mixing it all together!
Not into lamb? Well, first of all make sure you try it before you decide! But this mixture would work well with ground chicken or turkey! Sprinkle some feta cheese and extra herbs over the top of your plate to finish!
Kids plate: I knew Siena would give me a hard time about the meatballs. But she likes cucumbers! So I sliced up cucumbers and gave her olives. I made chicken sausage for her and added the meatball to her plate as a try me bite. I also gave her the option of dipping into the yogurt sauce.
1lb ground lamb
1 egg
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
chopped fresh parsley
chopped fresh dill
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tbsp finely chopped shallots
1 tsp za’atar seasoning
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine all ingredients in a bowl, I use my hands! Mix until well combined and uniform. Form the meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter, and place on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil over the top of the meatballs on the baking sheet. Then place in the oven for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, switch the oven to broil, let the meatballs broil on the middle rack for about 3 minutes. Make sure you do not step away!
