MEATBALL PARMIGIANA SLIDERS

Steps:

• Make the meatballs: Soak bread in milk for 5 minutes. Gently mix bread and milk with meats, Pecorino Romano, parsley, garlic, egg, and 1 teaspoon salt. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Roll mixture into twenty-four 1-ounce balls (each about the size of a golf ball).

• Make the sandwiches: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Working in batches, arrange rolls, cut side up, on a baking sheet. Place 1 meatball, a spoonful of sauce, 1 tablespoon mozzarella, and 1 teaspoon Pecorino Romano on bottom halves. Bake until cheese melts, about 3 minutes. Sandwich with basil.

• Drizzle 2 tablespoons olive oil on a small rimmed baking sheet. Scoop the mixture into 12 golf-ball sized balls and roll until smooth. Place on the baking sheet. Drizzle with the remaining tablespoon olive oil and bake, 15 minutes.
• For the sauce: Meanwhile, pulse the pistachios in a food processor until coarsely chopped. Add the basil, parsley and salt and pulse to combine. And the olive oil and 1/4 cup cold water and puree until it's a relatively smooth paste. Add the cheese and pulse to combine.
• Remove the meatballs from the oven and spread a teaspoon of pesto on each meatball. Bake for an additional 5 minutes.
• For the sliders: Spread a little pesto on the top and bottom of each bun. Place a pinch of arugula on the bottom and a meatball on the arugula. Top with the top half of the buns and serve.
