Cooking Instructions

• Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
• In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown and caramelized, about 10-15 minutes. Add minced garlic for the last minute of cooking. Remove from heat and let cool.
• In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, thyme, and the cooled onion mixture. Mix until just combined.
• Using your hands, shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through and browned.
• While the meatballs are baking, heat beef broth in a small saucepan. Add any remaining caramelized onions and simmer for a few minutes.
• Once meatballs are cooked, remove them from the oven. Place shredded cheese on top of each meatball and return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
• Remove from the oven and let the meatballs cool for a few minutes. Drizzle with warm beef broth and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
