Lamb Meatballs with Mint and Feta
Indulge in the flavors of the Mediterranean with our delectable Lamb Meatballs with Mint and Feta. This savory dish combines ground lamb, fragrant mint, and tangy feta cheese for a truly exceptional culinary experience.
Begin by gently mixing the ground lamb, chopped mint, crumbled feta, and a touch of seasoning in a bowl. Carefully shape the mixture into bite-sized meatballs, ensuring a uniform and compact shape.
Next, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Carefully add the meatballs and cook until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Once the meatballs are perfectly cooked, serve them warm, garnished with a sprinkle of additional mint and feta. These flavorful meatballs pair beautifully with a variety of Mediterranean-inspired sides, such as roasted vegetables, a fresh salad, or a tangy tzatziki sauce. Enjoy this delightful dish as a main course or as part of a mezze-style spread.
