Preparation
1
Prep and make panade

  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil (use same for 4 servings). 
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • To make panade, in a medium bowl, add panko and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) milk. Stir to combine. Set aside to soak for 5-7 min.
  • Peel, then grate half the onion. Cut remaining onion into 1/2-inch slices.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Roughly chop parsley.
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch slices.

2
Cook peperonata

  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. When hot add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, sliced onions and peppers. Cook for 6-7 min, stirring occasionally, until softened.
  • Add garlic and crushed tomatoes, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 10-12 min, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Season with salt and pepper.

3
Form and cook meatballs

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Meanwhile, to the panade, add beef, grated onions, half the parsley, Italian Herb Spice Blend, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) pepper. Season with salt and pepper, then combine. Roll mixture into 8 (16) equal-sized meatballs.
  • On the prepared baking sheet, arrange meatballs. Roast in the middle of the oven for 10 - 12 min, until browned and cooked through.**

4
Cook rigatoni

  • Meanwhile, to the boiling water, add rigatoni. Cook for 12-13 min, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite.
  • Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cups) pasta water.
  • Strain rigatoni, then return to the pot, off heat. Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then stir to combine.

5
Finish meatballs

  • To the peperonata, add 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) reserved pasta water and meatballs. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring occasionally, until meatballs are coated. Season with salt and pepper.

6
Finish and serve

  • Divide rigatoni between bowls and top with meatballs and peperonata.
  • Sprinkle Parmesan and remaining parsley over top.
