Servings: persons

1/3 cup chicken stock
1/4 yellow onion
1 clove garlic, peeled
1/4 cup fresh italian flat-leaf parsley, chopped fine
1/2 pound ground beef
1/2 pound ground pork
1/2 pound ground veal
1/3 cup plain bread crumbs
2 eggs
1/4 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon salt
3 to 6 cups Mamas Marinara
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

1
Place the chicken stock, garlic, and onions in a blender or food processor and puree.
2
In a large bowl, combine the pureed stock mix, meat, bread crumbs, eggs, Parmigiano-Reggiano, red pepper flakes, and salt.
3
Combine with both hands until the mixture is uniform.
4
Do not overmix.
5
Put a little olive oil on your hands and form the mixture into balls a little larger than golf balls.
6
They should be about 1/4 cup each, though if you prefer bigger or smaller, it will only affect the browning time.
7
Pour about 1/2 inch of extra-virgin olive oil into a straight-sided, 10-inch-wide saute pan and heat over a medium-high flame.
8
Add the meatballs to the pan (working in batches, if necessary) and brown the meatballs well on all sides.
9
This will take about 10-15 minutes.
10
While the meatballs are browning, heat the marinara sauce in a stockpot over medium heat.
11
Lift the meatballs out of the saute pan with a slotted spoon and put them in the marinara sauce.
12
Stir gently.
13
Simmer for one hour.
14
Serve with a little extra Parmigiano-Reggiano sprinkled on top.
