    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 375ºF.
    2. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper; set aside.
    3. Prepare Meatballs. To a large mixing bowl add meatball ingredients. Using your hands, mix until thoroughly combined. Form a meatball, 1½ to 2 inches in size, and place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining mixture, spacing them evenly on the baking sheet. Bake for 20 to 24 minutes.
    4. Prepare Sauce. While the meatballs are baking, to a small saucepan add all the sauce ingredients except the butter. Over medium heat, bring to a simmer until the mixture reduces and thickens to a sauce consistency, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in butter until melted. Cover to keep warm until ready to serve.
