Skillet Meatball Parmesan

This skillet meatball Parmesan dish is so good. The meatballs are first seared in the cast iron skillet to create a nice crust. Then the meatballs are baked along with the marinara sauce. Mozzarella cheese is spread on top. The meatballs are finished off in the oven until the cheese is melted. The result is some delicious meatballs – perfectly seared in the outside and moist in the inside. Just how I like my meatballs. Garnish these meatballs with Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley and serve them on top of some pasta or on its own. Enjoy!
