Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, breadcrumbs, ¼ cup of the Parmesan, onion powder, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
2. Scoop into 1-teaspoon portions and roll into small meatballs.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large deep skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs in a single layer and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and cooked through. Move the meatballs to a plate.
4. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the same skillet. Stir in the pasta, marinara sauce and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring often, until the pasta is al dente.
5. Stir in the milk, then add the meatballs and stir to heat through.
6. Take the skillet off the heat. Stir in the remaining Parmesan until melted and creamy. Serve topped with extra Parmesan and fresh basil.
