Ingredients
  

For the Meatballs
  • 1 pound ground beef (ideally a blend of lean and medium-fat)
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (Panko for a crispy texture)
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
For the Mushroom Gravy
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms (cremini or button)
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, paprika, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until everything is nicely combined.
  3. Roll the mixture into meatballs about 1.5 inches in diameter and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Baking Meatballs
  1. Bake the meatballs for about 20–25 minutes, or until they’re cooked through and golden brown.
Making the Mushroom Gravy
  1. While the meatballs are baking, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until browned, about 5 minutes.
  2. Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir for about 1-2 minutes. Slowly add the beef broth while whisking to avoid lumps. Stir in the Dijon mustard and let the gravy simmer for about 5 minutes until thickened.
Combining and Serving
  1. Gently add the baked meatballs to the gravy and coat them evenly. Serve hot over mashed potatoes or egg noodles.

Notes

Serve with mashed potatoes or egg noodles. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days, or they can be frozen for future meals.
