Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Preheat oven and prepare skillet

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-inch cast-iron skillet with cooking spray or oil.

2
Mix meatball ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, eggs, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, finely chopped onion, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

3
Form meatballs

Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form the meat mixture into 1 1/2-inch meatballs. Place the meatballs in the prepared cast-iron skillet, arranging them in a single layer.

4
Pour sauce and bake

Pour the tomato sauce evenly over the meatballs in the skillet. Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes.

5
Add cheese and bake

Remove the skillet from the oven and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the meatballs. Return the skillet to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

6
Serve

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the meatballs cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy the Cast-Iron Cheesy Baked Meatballs with your favorite pasta or crusty bread.
