Mediterranean Lamb Meatballs & Farro image

Juicy, beyond flavorful lamb meatballs served with plump farro and peas. I recommend serving with a mint pesto and lemon yogurt. This is great for a dinner party or dinner for a special occasion.

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 26

1/2 cup White Onion
1 clove Garlic
as needed Olive Oil
1 pound Ground Lamb
1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
1 teaspoon Ground Coriander
1/2 teaspoon Dried Basil
1/2 teaspoon Dried Oregano
1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
1/4 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
1/4 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
1 tablespoon Fresh Dill
1 Egg
1/3 cup Breadcrumbs
4 ounce Crumbled Feta Cheese
1/2 cup White Onion
1 clove Garlic
2 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1 cup Farro
1/2 cup Frozen Green Peas
to taste Garlic Salt
to taste Ground Black Pepper
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Butter
to taste Fresh Mint

Steps:

  • Heat Garlic (1 clove) in a small sauté pan over medium heat. Sauté White Onion (1/2 cup) until soft and translucent, about 2-3 minutes. Add the Olive Oil (as needed) and sauté until fragrant, about 45 seconds. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
  • In a large bowl add the Ground Lamb (1 pound), Ground Cumin (1 teaspoon), Ground Coriander (1 teaspoon), Dried Basil (1/2 teaspoon), Dried Oregano (1/2 teaspoon), Ground Cinnamon (1/4 teaspoon), Sea Salt (1/2 teaspoon), Ground Black Pepper (1/4 teaspoon), Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (1/4 teaspoon), Fresh Dill (1 tablespoon), Egg (1), Breadcrumbs (1/3 cup), and cooled onion/garlic mixture.
  • Mix until well combined, then gently fold in the Crumbled Feta Cheese (4 ounce).
  • Roll into 1 1/2 ounce meatballs. This yields 14 meatballs.
  • To cook the meatballs, add 3-counts of Olive Oil (as needed) to a large skillet (cast-iron works great). Heat to medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until crisp and brown. If you like your lamb more medium-rare, 2-3 minutes will do. Keep warm.
  • Heat the Olive Oil (1 tablespoon) and Butter (1 tablespoon) in a small sauce pan over medium-high heat.
  • Once the butter has melted, saute the White Onion (1/2 cup) until soft and translucent, about 2-3 minutes. Add the Garlic (1 clove) and cook until fragrant, about 45 seconds.
  • Add the Low-Sodium Chicken Broth (2 cup) and bring to a vigorous boil. Stir in the Farro (1 cup) reduce to a simmer, and cover. Simmer until the stock has completely evaporated and the farro is plump, about 20 minutes.
  • Once the farro is cooked, remove from the heat and stir in the Frozen Green Peas (1/2 cup). Season with Garlic Salt (to taste) and Ground Black Pepper (to taste), tasting and adjusting as needed.
  • To serve, arrange the farro on a large serving platter. Cover with the meatballs and some fresh Fresh Mint (to taste) (optional). Enjoy!
