Step 1
In a bowl, mix 1 lb ground beef, 1 egg, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Form into 12 small meatballs.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add meatballs and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, pour in 1 cup beef broth and 1 cup heavy cream. Bring to a simmer, scraping up browned bits, about 2 minutes.
Step 4
Return meatballs to the sauce. Simmer gently until cooked through and sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 5
Meanwhile, cook 8 oz egg noodles according to package directions. Drain and serve with meatballs and sauce, topped with black pepper.
