Ingredients


  • 2 lbs of ground lamb

  • ½ cup mixed herbs, parsley, thyme, oregano, chopped

  • 1 egg

  • ¼ cup panko bread crumbs

  • 1 tsp ground black pepper

  • 1 tsp ground paprika

  • 2 shallots, minced

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 lb button mushrooms, halved

  • ¼ sun dried tomatoes

  • 2 tbs shallot, minced

  • 2 tbs mixed herbs, parsley, thyme, oregano, chopped

  • 2 tbs olive oil

Also: Heirloom tomatoes



Directions

  1. Mix all ingredients together for meatballs. Scoop and form meatballs to your liking and let sit in the refrigerator uncovered for 2 hours or overnight.

  2. Cook meatballs in a 400 degree oven until almost cooked. Meatballs should be soft and tender to the touch, 12 to 18 minutes depending on size.

  3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add mushrooms to oil and sweat for a few minutes. Add in sun dried tomatoes, saute for another minute. Add shallot herbs, and reserved meatballs. Cook until meatballs are done.

  4. Serve over sliced heirloom tomatoes and sprinkle all with sea salt.


Enjoy with Yorba's 3rd Generation Blend!
