Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 pound ground pork
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup yellow onion, finely grated
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, garlic, grated onion, salt, black pepper, paprika, and parsley. Mix until just combined.
  2. Roll the mixture into medium meatballs.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and lightly grease if needed. Add the meatballs and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, turning as needed, until browned on all sides and nearly cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
  4. In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5 to 6 minutes until softened and browned.
  5. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Sprinkle in the flour and stir well for 1 minute.
  6. Slowly pour in the beef broth while stirring. Add the heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly.
  7. Return the meatballs to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them. Simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, until the meatballs are fully cooked and the gravy is rich and creamy.
  8. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use a mix of beef and pork for the best flavor.
  • Cook mushrooms until they release their moisture and brown for maximum taste.
  • Adjust seasoning to your preference.
