Amazing Red Wine Braised Meatballs for a Delicious Dinner are a gourmet twist on comfort food, bursting with flavor.

Ingredients

Scale

1 lb ground beef 80/20 recommended
¼ cup fresh parsley chopped
1 onion finely chopped
3 cloves garlic minced
1 cup red wine fruity variety like Merlot
14 oz canned tomatoes crushed
1 cup beef broth low-sodium
to taste salt
to taste pepper
for browning tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic.
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, parsley, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix by hand until just combined.
Form the mixture into golf ball-sized meatballs.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add meatballs, browning them on all sides until golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.
Remove meatballs. Pour red wine into the skillet, scraping up flavorful bits. Stir in crushed tomatoes and beef broth, then bring to a simmer.
Return meatballs to the sauce, cover, and let simmer on low for about 30 minutes.
