Gourmet Philly Pork Meatballs
Pork, Broccoli Rabe, Pecorino Meatballs
A South Philly approach to meatballs!Â
If youâve ever visited the City of Brotherly Love, you know the locals go ga-ga over roast pork sandwiches (step aside cheesesteaks). And these meatballs pay homage to this iconic âsecondâ sandwich⊠ground pork, garlicky broccoli rabe, pecorino romano cheese, and our savory Black Truffle Pomodoro Pasta Sauce.Â
Serve these with a side of your favorite noodle (we love the classic spaghetti) or smothered in cheese and stuffed into a soft hoagie roll.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add garlic and onion and sauté until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
- Add broccoli rabe and continue to sauté until tender for a4-5 minutes. Transfer veggies to a large bowl.
- Add pork, bread crumbs, eggs, pecorino, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes to the bowl with the veggies and mix by hand to combine.
- Using a 1/4 cup measure, portion meatball mix and roll into balls. Place on a baking sheet and transfer to the oven.
- Cook for 15 -25 minutes or until cooked through and golden brown.
- While the meatballs are cooking, heat the TRUFF Black Truffle Pomodoro Pasta Sauce in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer for 4-5 minutes.
- Once the meatballs are done, drizzle or toss in the sauce and serve with your favorite noodles. Sprinkle with pecorino before serving.
