• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and no longer pink in the centers, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
• Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add celery, onion, and garlic. Cook, stirring often, for 3 minutes. Stir in salt and pepper. Sprinkle flour over top and stir constantly for 2 minutes.

• Gently add meatballs one at a time, without stirring, as this will cause the meatballs to fall apart. Reduce heat to low. Cook until the bottoms of the meatballs begin to turn white, about 3 minutes. Gently turn meatballs to allow the other side to cook. Increase heat to medium-low and cook for about 10 minutes. Turn meatballs again, and continue to cook for about 15 minutes. Stir in frozen peas.
• Test meatballs for doneness with an instant-read thermometer. The safe internal temperature for meatballs is 175 degrees F (79 degrees C).
• If stew is too thin, remove about 1/2 cup of broth to a cup and allow to cool briefly. Briskly stir in cornstarch until there are no lumps. Gradually add slurry to the stew, stirring constantly, and cook until the broth has thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
