4. Cook Through:
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover the skillet and cook for another 8–10 minutes until the meatballs are cooked through (internal temperature should reach 160°F / 70°C). Alternatively, bake the seared meatballs in the oven for 10–12 minutes to finish cooking evenly.
5. Serve:
Serve the mozzarella-stuffed meatballs warm with marinara sauce, on top of pasta, or with garlic bread for dipping. The moment you cut into one, that melted cheese center will make your heart (and taste buds) melt!
Tips
- Cheese Options: Try provolone, fontina, or cheddar for different flavor profiles.
- Extra Juiciness: Add a tablespoon of milk or a splash of olive oil to the mixture if it feels too dry.
- Make Ahead: Shape the meatballs ahead of time and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before cooking.
- Air Fryer Option: Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 10–12 minutes until golden and cooked through.
