About Greek-style lemon-pepper pork meatballs

Greek-Style Lemon-Pepper Pork Meatballs offer a flavorful twist on traditional Mediterranean cuisine. Made with ground pork, freshly grated lemon zest, cracked black pepper, minced garlic, oregano, and parsley, these meatballs are bursting with vibrant, zesty notes. A hint of olive oil adds richness while maintaining the light, aromatic profile typical of Greek dishes. These meatballs are baked—not fried—making them a healthier choice for those seeking lower-fat meal options. Packed with protein from the pork and layered with antioxidant-rich herbs and citrus, they make for a satisfying yet nutritious dish. While the pork provides iron and essential vitamins, it’s worth noting that the fat content may be higher than lean proteins like chicken or turkey. Served with a side of tzatziki or atop a fresh salad, these meatballs bring Mediterranean-inspired health and flavor to the table.
