Description

Imagine sinking your teeth into a sphere of savory delight. These meatballs boast a beautiful, crisp exterior, achieved through careful searing, giving way to a surprisingly tender and juicy interior. The browning process not only creates a delightful textural contrast but also deepens the flavor, lending a subtle caramelized note to the meat.

These are far from your average meatball; they offer a gourmet twist. What sets these meatballs apart is the hidden treasure nestled within: generous pockets of creamy, tangy goat cheese. As the meatballs bake, the goat cheese softens and melts, creating a luscious molten core.

The contrast between the rich, savory meat and the bright, slightly acidic goat cheese is a culinary revelation. It's a dance of flavors that will tantalize your taste buds and leave you craving more. Serve them fresh from the oven, and you'll experience the full glory of the gooey, melted goat cheese.

The warm cheese oozes out with each bite, creating a decadent and satisfying experience. Allow them to cool slightly, and the goat cheese firms up, offering a delightful textural counterpoint to the tender meat. The slightly firmer cheese holds its shape better, offering distinct bursts of tangy flavor as you eat.

These goat cheese-stuffed meatballs are incredibly versatile. They make a fantastic appetizer, perfect for impressing guests at your next gathering. Serve them with a simple marinara sauce for dipping, or drizzle them with a balsamic glaze for an added touch of sweetness.

Alternatively, these meatballs can be the star of a hearty main course. Toss them with your favorite pasta, or serve them alongside a fresh salad for a complete and satisfying meal. These meatballs bring savory, tangy, and creamy notes together in perfect harmony, promising a satisfying culinary experience.

Instructions

    1.
    Preheat an oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl, mix together all the ingredients except for the goat cheese.
    2.
    Use your hands to form 12 meatballs about 1 - 2 inches wide. Chop your goat cheese into 12 pieces.
    3.
    To stuff the meatballs, press each ball into a flat disk and place a piece of goat cheese into the center. Mold the meatball over the cheese to reshape it. Arrange the meatballs on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper.
