Instructions
0 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. 1 Make the chimichurri sauce by blending [wprm-ingredient text="1 tbsp garlic" uid="8"], [wprm-ingredient text="1/2 jalapeno pepper" uid="9"], [wprm-ingredient text="1/2 cup parsley" uid="10"], [wprm-ingredient text="1/2 cup cilantro," uid="11"] [wprm-ingredient text="1/2 cup mint leaves," uid="12"] [wprm-ingredient text="1/3 cup avocado oil" uid="13"], [wprm-ingredient text="1/4 cup lime juice," uid="14"] [wprm-ingredient text="1 tbsp honey" uid="15"], and [wprm-ingredient text="1/4 tsp salt and pepper" uid="16"] in a blender. Alternatively, you can finely mince everything with a knife and then mix it all together. 2 Make the meatballs in a large bowl by mixing together the [wprm-ingredient text="1 lb ground beef" uid="0"], [wprm-ingredient text="1 egg" uid="1"], [wprm-ingredient text="1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs" uid="2"], [wprm-ingredient text="1/2 tsp salt" uid="3"], [wprm-ingredient text="1/4 tsp pepper" uid="4"], and [wprm-ingredient text="2 tbsp chimichurri sauce" uid="5"]. 3 Scoop 16 meatballs onto a sheet tray and bake for approximately 20 minutes (or until they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees). 4 Remove the meatballs from the oven and serve them up with the remaining chimichurri sauce on top.
