Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cups beef broth
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 0.75 cup sour cream
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, mixing well until fully combined.

Step 2

Form the mixture into evenly sized meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs, working in batches if needed, and brown them on all sides until cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, or until fragrant.

Step 6

Sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic, stirring constantly, and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.

Step 7

Gradually whisk in the beef broth, ensuring no lumps remain. Add the Worcestershire sauce and paprika, stirring to combine.

Step 8

Lower the heat to a simmer and return the meatballs to the skillet. Cover and cook for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the sour cream until the sauce is smooth and creamy.

Step 10

Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if necessary.

Step 11

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot over egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes.
