Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it with nonstick spray.

In a large bowl, mix all the meatball ingredients together until well combined. Don’t be afraid to get your hands in there for the best mixing!

Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture, roll it into a ball, and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until all the mixture is used, making around 35 meatballs.

Bake for 20 minutes until fully cooked. Use an instant-read thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). This guarantees that your meatballs are safe to eat!

For the sauce, melt the butter and lemon juice in a saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, then stir in the fresh herbs for that burst of flavor.

Brush or spoon the herb butter sauce over the cooked meatballs. If you like a little heat, sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes.

Serve the warm meatballs with extra herb butter sauce over pasta or zucchini noodles for a delightful meal.

Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. They make for a quick lunch or snack!
