Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • ¼ cup onion, finely chopped

  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
  • Shape the mixture into 16 meatballs (about 1.5 inches in diameter).
  • Place the meatballs on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked through (internal temperature of 160°F).
  • While the meatballs are baking, prepare the mushroom gravy. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Sprinkle flour over the mushrooms and stir to incorporate, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  • Gradually whisk in beef broth, ensuring no lumps form. Add Worcestershire sauce and thyme, then bring to a simmer.
  • Season the gravy with salt and pepper as needed. Allow to thicken for about 5 minutes.
  • Once the meatballs are done, add them to the skillet with the gravy and gently toss to coat.
  • Serve hot with your choice of sides, such as mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
