Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons dried oregano
  • 2 tablespoons dried basil
  • 1 ½ tablespoons ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup finely chopped onion
  • ¼ cup finely chopped cilantro
  • 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 cup Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1 (45 ounce) jar traditional-flavor pasta sauce

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place wire racks over 2 baking sheets lined with aluminum foil.
  • Combine beef, salt, oregano, basil, black pepper, rosemary, and chili powder in a large bowl. Stir in eggs, onion, cilantro, and garlic until evenly distributed. Gradually incorporate bread crumbs until mixture is moist but not gooey.
  • Scoop up meat mixture using a mini ice cream scoop and shape into balls that are slightly smaller than golf balls. Arrange meatballs on prepared wire racks.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 30 minutes. Flip and continue baking until browned on the other side, about 15 minutes more.
  • Transfer meatballs to a large pot; pour in pasta sauce. Bring to a simmer; cook until flavors combine, at least 30 minutes.
