Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a food processor, combine all the ingredients for chimichurri sauce. Pulse until
well combined, but still slightly thick. You do not want to over-blend.
For best results, allow it to sit for 15 to 20 minutes to allow flavors to mix. Store refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix 1/3 cup prepared chimichurri with the bread crumbs.
Add ground beef, pork, salt, and red pepper flakes. Mix well with your hands until the
breadcrumb mixture is completely mixed. Do not overwork the mixture, which can lead to a tougher meatball.
With wet hands, roll the meat mixture into 2-inch balls (about 2-3 tablespoons each) and place on the baking sheet.
Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, making sure to turn halfway.
Serve with remaining chimichurri sauce, crumbled feta, and lemon wedges.
