Instructions

Begin by setting your oven to preheat at 400°F, ensuring the rack is situated in the center. Prepare a large, rimmed baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper and placing it to the side.

In a medium-sized bowl, combine all the ingredients designated for the meatballs. Use your hands to mix them thoroughly, being careful not to overwork the mixture. Form the combined ingredients into about 16 individual meatballs.

Place the formed meatballs onto the lined baking sheet in an even layer. Bake them in the preheated oven until they are fully cooked, which should take around 12 to 15 minutes.

While the meatballs are baking, turn your attention to the sauce. In a small bowl, mix together all the sauce ingredients and whisk until fully combined. Transfer the sauce to a large skillet set over low heat, stirring continuously until it reaches a gentle boil. Let it cook for an additional 30 to 60 seconds, allowing it to thicken slightly.

Once the sauce has thickened, remove the skillet from the heat and carefully add the meatballs, tossing them gently to ensure they are well-coated in the sauce.
