To make the Easy Pork Meatballs, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 400 °F. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
In a large bowl, combine 2 pounds ground pork, 2 teaspoons kosher salt (or 1 teaspoon of any other salt), ½ teaspoon black pepper, 2 teaspoons onion powder, 2 teaspoons garlic powder, 2 teaspoons paprika, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon ground coriander, 1 teaspoon ground cumin. Using your clean hands, gently mix well.
Form the meat mixture into 32 meatballs, about 1 ounce (30 grams) each. If your hands are moistened, it's easier to shape the meatballs.
Arrange the meatballs in a single layer on the prepared baking pan.
Bake until the meatballs are browned and cooked through, and an instant-read thermometer registers 160 °F when inserted into the center, about 15 minutes.
Serve right away!
Super easy meatballs!
