How to Make Russian Meatballs

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, gently combine ground beef, ground pork, egg, bread crumbs, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Do not overmix.
  2. Roll the meat mixture into 1-inch meatballs.
  3. Heat cooking oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the meatballs on all sides.
  4. In a small saucepan, combine peach jam, salad dressing, and onion soup mix. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the jam melts and the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened (about 5 minutes).
  5. Pour the peach glaze over the browned meatballs in the skillet. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce is bubbly.
  6. Serve the meatballs immediately over cooked rice, if desired. Enjoy!
