Instructions
- Start by preheating the oven to 400°F and greasing a baking dish (I used a 10×13 inch one) with butter.
- Add all the meatball ingredients from the list to a large bowl.
- Mix everything until well combined, and then form the mixture into even small meatballs. Optional: roll them in pork rinds. Place them in the baking dish.
- Bake for 20 minutes until browned. Then, remove from the oven.
- Place a skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Then, add the garlic and sauté.
- Add the heavy cream, pepper, and salt. Simmer until the sauce thickens, and then stir in the parmesan and basil.
- Add the meatballs to the skillet, toss them until coated, and serve. Enjoy!
Notes
Note: I am adding garlic powder and other Italian seasonings in very small amounts to make this dish extra tasty. If you follow a 100% strict carnivore diet, feel free to just omit these ingredients.
