These juicy Mozzarella Stuffed Meatballs are a fun twist on the classic Italian meatballs recipe – serve these cheesy bite-sized meatballs as an appetizer or use them to take your Spaghetti and Meatballs to the next level!
Using your hands, form a meatball using about one tablespoon of the meat mixture. Press bocconcini into the center of the meatball. Make sure the bocconcini is well covered with meat to enclose filling.
Repeat with remaining ingredients. You should get about 20 meatballs.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Spray with olive oil. Brown meatballs for about 30 seconds on each side (handle them carefully to make sure they don't break and bocconcini remain sealed inside). Don't overcrowd meatballs in the skillet - make two batches if necessary.
Transfer browned meatballs to a baking dish and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and serve immediately with marinara sauce (optional)
