*This recipe was developed for Gourmet d'Expert® Electric Skillet (EP-RAC50). Adjustments may be necessary when using other models.
In a large bowl, place both ground meats and salt, then mix well with a clean hand. Add beaten egg and mix again. Add the remaining ingredients for meatballs, except olive oil. Mix thoroughly, and set aside.
Heat olive oil in the Gourmet d’Expert® Electric Skillet and set the temperature to 360°F to preheat for approximately 6 minutes. Wet your hands, shape the mixture from step 1 into 12 evenly-sized balls, and place the prepared meatballs on the skillet to cook.
Turn meatballs every 2 minutes. Then cook for 15 minutes or until browned on all surfaces.
Reduce temperature to 280°F and remove extra grease from the skillet with a paper towel.
Add marinara sauce to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes. Turn the meatballs, place the lid, reduce the temperature to SIMMER, and cook for 15 minutes or until cooked through.
When finished, set the temperature to KEEP WARM. Remove the lid, sprinkle shredded Parmesan cheese and parsley.
Serve and consume meatballs within 2 hours. Enjoy!
