Ina Garten’s Oven-Roasted Meatballs

 

Ingredients

-1 lb ground chuck
-1 c seasoned Italian breadcrumbs
-2 crushed garlic cloves
-1/2 cup good quality shaved parmesan (from the deli section)
-1 tbsp dried parsley leaves
-1 beaten egg
-1/2 c dry red wine (Chianti or Merlot—doesn’t need to be expensive.)
-1/8 c olive oil
-1 tsp salt
-1/4 tsp black pepper
-28 oz jar of your favorite marinara sauce (I like Mid’s or Botticelli.)

Directions

1) Preheat oven to 400°.
2) Mix all ingredients (besides marinara) together with your hands until well combined, but do not overwork.
3) Roll into balls approximately 2” in diameter (about the size of a golf or ping pong ball).
4) Place on a baking sheet lined with foil and greased.
5)Bake 25-30 minutes until browned.
6) Gently stir the cooked meatballs into heated marinara sauce.

Serve with crusty bread, garlic bread, or over pasta. Makes around 20 balls.
