Instructions

For the meatballs:

  1. If making fresh, combine meatball ingredients in a large bowl and mix well.
  2. Roll into 2" (golfball sized) balls.
  3. Let chill 1 hour in refrigerator to set.

For the meal:

  1. Add olive oil to pan or dutch oven, and heat on medium high until shimmery.
  2. Add meatballs and brown on all sides, about 3-5 minutes per side (1-2 minutes if cooking pre-cooked/frozen meatballs).
  3. Add stock to pan, and take care to scrape up any browned bits from the meatballs.
  4. Keep cooking meatballs until done inside, turning occasionally to prevent sticking, until size is reduced and balls are firm to the touch - about 8 minutes.
  5. Add butter to pan with garlic.
  6. Let garlic slightly brown and soften, until fragrant.
  7. Stir in parmesan cheese and serve over pasta, rice, vegetables, or on their own!
