Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, finely grated onion, rinsed arborio rice, fresh parsley, dill, egg, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined.
- Roll the mixture into golf ball-sized meatballs, about 1.5 inches in diameter. Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes.
- In a pot, bring chicken broth and olive oil to a gently simmer. Add chilled meatballs in a single layer, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Whisk together eggs and lemon juice in a bowl. Gradually add hot chicken broth to temper the eggs while whisking.
- Remove pot from heat and slowly stir in the egg-lemon mixture, stirring over low heat until warmed through without boiling.
- Ladle the warm meatballs and sauce into serving bowls, garnishing with additional chopped dill or lemon wedges.
