Step 1

In a large bowl, add all your meatball ingredients. Mix with your hands just until combined. Form the mixture into 15 meatballs.

Step 2

In a large pan over medium heat, add 1 tbsp olive oil or spray it with cooking spray. Add your meatballs, make sure they have enough room to cook and brown evenly. Use tongs to continuously flip the meatballs until they are fully browned. About 5-6 minutes.

Step 3

Add a lid and cook the meatballs for another 5-6 minutes until fully cooked through. The internal temperature of the meatball should reach 165 degrees. Do not over cook as this will dry out the meatballs! Remove from heat and set aside while you assemble the lemon orzo.

Step 4

In a large bowl, add all the lemon orzo ingredients: cooked orzo, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, olive oil OR butter, parmesan cheese, and seasonings. Mix until fully combined.

Step 5

Serve the cooked meatballs over the warm lemon orzo and enjoy!
