Best 6 Spicy Meatball Sandwiches Recipes

SMASHED MEATBALL SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the beef, sausage, and panko. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and salt and add to the meat. Use clean hands or a fork to mix the ingredients until evenly combined, being careful not to over-mix. Form the mixture into 8 meatballs.
• Add the marinara sauce to a straight-sided skillet and bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat. When the sauce is simmering, gently nestle in the meatballs. Turn the heat down to low and cover the pan. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping the meatballs halfway through.
• Slice each hoagie roll through the center, but do not slice all the way through. This will help keep everything in the sandwich. Working one at a time, tear a slice of cheese in half and place the halves on the base of the roll. Place a few basil leaves on the top half of the roll. Transfer 2 meatballs on top of the cheese and use a fork to smash the meatballs, exposing the meat in the center and spreading it to cover the base of the roll. Spoon a few tablespoons of extra sauce onto the meat. Close the sandwich and transfer it to a square of parchment paper. Tightly wrap the sandwich with parchment paper. Slice each sandwich in half diagonally and serve.

MEATBALL BANH MI

Steps:

• Start by preparing the carrot and daikon. Add the julienned carrots and daikon to a large bowl and toss in the sugar, salt, vinegar and sesame oil. Set aside for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
• While that's going, thoroughly combine all the meatball ingredients in a bowl, and form into meatballs (you should get about 20). Place the meatballs on a parchment lined baking sheet, and transfer to the freezer for 20 minutes. After the meatballs have been chilled, heat a tablespoon of oil in a cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Fry the meatballs until browned on all sides and cooked through.
• In a separate bowl, combine the mayonnaise and Sriracha. Open up each piece of bread, and spread the Sriracha mayonnaise on each side. Fill with the pickled carrots and daikon, cooked meatballs, jalapenos, and cilantro. Serve!

MEATBALL SUBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place ground sirloin in a large mixing bowl and punch a well into the center of meat. Fill well with the egg, bread crumbs, onion, garlic, red pepper flakes, Worcestershire, parsley, cheese, and a little salt and pepper. Mix up meatball ingredients until well combined, yet not over-mixed. Divide mix into 4 equal parts, roll each part into 4 balls and space equally onto a nonstick baking sheet. Place meatballs in oven and roast about 12 minutes. Break a meatball open and make sure meat is cooked through before removing from the oven.
• Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add oil and garlic. When garlic starts sizzling, add herbs and crushed pepper. Allow oil to infuse for half a minute, then stir in the tomatoes and season sauce with salt and pepper. Bring sauce to a bubble, reduce heat, and simmer until meatballs are removed from oven.
• Combine meatballs and sauce and pile into sub rolls, 4 meatballs per sub. Top with shredded cheese and place under subs under broiler to melt cheese. Top with shredded basil or arugula and serve with a pile of Oven Fries.
• Drizzle potatoes with a generous pour of extra-virgin olive oil. Toss potatoes with seasoning blend or coarse salt and pepper. Place potatoes on a nonstick baking sheet and roast 20 minutes or until just tender. Give the baking sheet a good shake after 10 minutes to avoid sticking.

MEATBALL SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, gently mix by hand the ground beef, bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, garlic, parsley, Parmesan cheese, and egg. Shape into 12 meatballs, and place in a baking dish.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cooked through. Meanwhile, cut the baguette in half lengthwise, and remove some of the bread from the inside to make a well for the meatballs. Brush with olive oil, and season with garlic powder and salt. Slip the baguette into the oven during the last 5 minutes of the meatball's time, or until lightly toasted.
• While the bread toasts, warm the spaghetti sauce in a saucepan over medium heat. When the meatballs are done, use a slotted spoon to transfer them to the sauce. Spoon onto the baguette and top with slices of provolone cheese. Return to the oven for 2 to 3 minutes to melt the cheese. Cool slightly, cut into servings, and enjoy!
