Baked in pizza dough cups, these beautifully seasoned meatballs are easy and quick to make, requiring only 7 ingredients. Top it with some Greek sauce and have yourself a wonderful side dish.
Method of Preparation:
-
Heat the oven to 400°F. Spray 36 mini muffin cups with a non stick cooking spray. Microwave the frozen spinach for about 3 to 4 minutes until thawed. Drain well and squeeze the spinach dry with paper towels.
-
In a large bowl, combine the lamb, Italian seasoning, onion powder and 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt and a 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add the spinach and the feta, mixing with a spoon or with your hands until well-combined.
-
Sprinkle the surface with flour and unroll the dough onto it. Cut the dough in half (crosswise), press or roll each half to a 10x8-inch rectangle. Using a two-inch round cutter, cut 18 rounds from each dough rectangle. Press 1 dough round in the bottom and up the sides of each muffin cup. Scoop or spoon 1 tablespoon lamb mixture into each cup and press in lightly.
-
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the lamb is no longer pink in the center. Test by placing a meat thermometer to read 160°F. Let it cool for 5 minutes then top each cup with 1/2 teaspoonful tzatziki sauce. Serve warm.
