Ingredients
  

1 pound ground beef

1/2 pound ground pork

1/2 cup breadcrumbs

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 large egg

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 cup beef broth

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1/2 cup heavy cream

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Make the Meatball Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Use your hands to mix until everything is well combined.

      Form the Meatballs: Roll the mixture into meatballs, about 1.5 inches in diameter. You should yield approximately 20 meatballs.

        Sear the Meatballs: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the meatballs (in batches if needed) and cook until they are browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside.

          Prepare the Gravy: In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium-low and add the beef broth, scraping up the brown bits from the skillet. Stir in the Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce until well blended.

            Cream it Up: Add the heavy cream to the gravy mixture and stir until combined. Bring to a gentle simmer.

              Combine and Finish: Return the meatballs to the skillet, spooning the gravy over them. Cover and let them simmer for about 10 minutes until cooked through and heated.

                Serve: Once ready, remove from heat, and serve the meatballs in the Dijon gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta of your choice.
