Here is what you'll need!
CHEESE-STUFFED TACO MEATBALLS
Servings: 12
INGREDIENTS
1 pound ground beef
⅓ cup onion, minced
¼ cup cilantro, minced
2 tablespoons taco seasoning
1 egg
½ cup crushed tortilla chips
¼ pound jack cheese, cut into 12 equal cubes
Vegetable oil
Garnishes
Salsa
Cilantro
Sour cream
PREPARATION
- In a bowl, combine all ingredients except the cheese and vegetable oil. Stir until fully incorporated.
- With your hands, grab about a golf ball-sized amount of the ground beef mixture and slightly flatten it in your palm. Take 1 cube of cheese, place it in the the middle, and press the beef around it so the cheese is fully covered and in the center of the meatball.
- Heat a thin layer of vegetable oil in a cast-iron pan over medium to medium-high heat.
- Once the pan is hot, cook the meatballs. Rotate them throughout cooking to brown all sides and cook through.
- Once meatballs are fully cooked and browned, remove from the pan and top with salsa, sour cream, and cilantro.
Enjoy!
