Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch chunks
Kosher salt
12 ounces ground beef chuck
12 ounces sweet Italian sausage meat
1/3 cup breadcrumbs
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
Freshly ground pepper
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
12 ounces sliced mixed mushrooms
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup dry Marsala wine
1 cup fresh parsley, chopped

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.

MEATBALLS WITH SAGE & MARSALA



Meatballs With Sage & Marsala image

I have used Thyme rather than Sage in the past and it was just as good. This is an easy recipe with AMAZING results. Its perfect for company and quite impressive. You can use ground Turkey rather than Veal if you like. I don't know where I got this from. The cooking & prep times are just guesses. Serve this as a main dish with pasta, risotto, rice or potatoes as a side or part of a larger Italian meal after the Pasta course with a steamed vegetable on the side. Make sure you have some bread for cleaning that plate!

Categories     Meat

Time 1h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lbs ground veal
1/4 cup breadcrumbs, moistened with milk (seasond is ok, the consistency should be that of hot breakfast cerial or polenta)
3 tablespoons parmesan cheese
12 fresh sage leaves
3 tablespoons butter
salt
pepper
3/4 cup dry marsala
1/2 cup heavy cream (condenced milk works too, both whole and fat free)

Steps:

  • Mix together the veal, breadcrumbs and cheese and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Chop half the sage leaves and add them to the meat mixture.
  • Form into walnut sized balls and fry them in the butter until golden.
  • Add the Marsala and let it cook down until it begins to thicken.
  • Chop remaining sage and add to the sauce.
  • Season to taste.
  • Add cream and stir to combine, cooking for a few minutes longer until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
  • They can cook gently for hours if need be.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ground beef for the meatballs. This will ensure that they are flavorful and juicy.
  • Do not overmix the meatball mixture. Overmixing will make the meatballs tough.
  • Use a large skillet or Dutch oven to cook the meatballs. This will prevent them from overcrowding and ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Brown the meatballs in a little olive oil before adding the sauce. This will help to develop their flavor.
  • Simmer the meatballs in the sauce for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and the meatballs to become tender.
  • Serve the meatballs over pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes. You can also use them as a sandwich filling or appetizer.

Conclusion:

Creamy Marsala meatballs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner.
