Swedish Meatballs with Sour Cream Sauce
Makes 60-70 1-inch mini-meatballs

Ingredients:

1 small onion, finely diced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb. ground beef (96% lean)
1 lb. ground pork
1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup beef broth
1 tablespoon parsley, minced
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 eggs
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Olive oil for the baking pan

Sour Cream Sauce Ingredients:

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup beef broth
1/2 cup sour cream
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon minced parsley (for garnishing)

Directions:

1. In a small skillet, sauté the finely diced onions in olive oil until translucent, about 5 minutes. Cool slightly.

2. Mix the onions with the beef, pork, breadcrumbs, broth, parsley, garlic, eggs, and spices.

3. Make the meatballs. With a small scoop or spoon, form small balls about 1-inch in diameter. Place on one or two lightly oiled parchment-lined rimmed baking sheets.

4. Bake the meatballs in a 400 degrees F oven for 14-16 minutes or until cooked through, and the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F.

Do-Ahead Tip: Bake the meatballs a day ahead of time, then refrigerate the meatballs, OR bake and freeze for up to a month. Reheat the meatballs in the oven before serving.

5. Make the Sauce: In a saucepan, cook the butter and flour roux for 2 minutes whiskingconstantly. Add the beef broth and continue to whisk until the sauce is smooth. Add the sour cream and whisk until well-combined. Season generously with salt and pepper.

7. Pour the sauce over the meatballs, toss to coat, and serve. Or, serve the sauce as a bed for the meatballs, or on the side. Garnish with minced parsley.
