Meatballs In Marsala Sauce Recipes

MEATBALL MARSALA

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer; cook until tender, 20 minutes. Drain and return to the saucepan.
• Meanwhile, preheat the broiler. Combine the beef, sausage, breadcrumbs, egg, 1/2 cup chicken broth, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl; mix with your hands until combined. Form into 12 meatballs (about 2 inches) and arrange on a rimmed baking sheet. Broil until browned, about 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over high heat. Add the mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the mushrooms are softened, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle in the flour and stir to coat. Stir in the wine and bring to a boil. Add 1 cup chicken broth and return to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium high and add the meatballs. Simmer, stirring occasionally, while you mash the potatoes.
• Add the remaining 5 tablespoons butter and 1/2 cup chicken broth to the potatoes and mash. Season with salt and pepper. Stir the parsley into the meatball mixture. Serve with the potatoes.

CHICKEN MARSALA MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to high.
• In a large bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, milk and 1 tablespoon Marsala. Leave to soak for 5 minutes. Add the chicken, pecorino, egg, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper. With your hands, gently mix together the ingredients until just combined. Form the mixture into tablespoon-size balls and place on an oiled baking sheet. Broil for 5 minutes, or until the meatballs are beginning to brown and are just barely cooked through. Remove from the oven and set aside.
• In a straight-sided skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the mushrooms are brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add the shallots and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook for another 2 minutes. Lower the heat to medium and stir in the flour and the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the 1/3 cup Marsala and stir until the mixture is smooth. Whisk in the chicken broth and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the meatballs to the sauce and simmer for an additional 5 minutes to let the flavors blend. Serve hot, garnished with grated pecorino.

MARSALA MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Make pasta - start a boiling pot of water, I always add 1/2 teaspoon of salt to my water to bring it to a boil. Add 1/2 lbs spaghetti noodles and cook according to package directions.
• *Once noodles are done rinse in cold water. Then toss in a bit of olive to keep them from sticking together.
• While pasta is cooking prepare the meatballs.
• In a large mixing bowl combine beef, sausage, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, egg 1/2 cup chicken broth, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper; mix together using your hands until well combined.
• Using a 1/4 cup scooper, I used my large cookie dough one for 12-14 meatballs. Roll in our hand to form each meatball and arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Place in oven and bake on high broil until browned, approximately 7 minutes, be sure to place these in the middle of the oven, not on the top rack.
• While the meatballs are cooking in a large sauce pan melt butter over high heat. Once melted add mushrooms, salt and pepper. Cook mushrooms until softened, being sure to stir so that they don't stick to the bottom.
• Sprinkle flour over the cooked mushrooms and stir together. Add Marsala wine and bring to a boil. Once it is boiling add in chicken broth and bring back to a broil.
• Once boiling reduce heat to medium-high and add 1/2 chopped parsley and meatballs.
• Allow to simmer for 10 minutes.
• Serve pasta, adding meatball, mushrooms and sauce on top like pictured.
