Ingredients

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

1 cup yellow onion, minced

1/4 cup garlic, minced

2 teaspoons paprika

3 cups chicken broth

1 1/2 cups white wine, dry

1 teaspoon saffron, crumbled

Salt, to taste

48 (2 lbs.) meatballs, purchased, fully-cooked and frozen, approx. 1″ diameter

Directions

Heat oil in a large Dutch Oven or stock pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, another 2-3 minutes.

Add paprika, chicken broth and wine. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until reduced to 2 cups, approximately 30 minutes.

Stir in saffron. Add frozen meatballs, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer an additional 15-20 minutes until meatballs are warmed through.

Remove meatballs from sauce with a slotted spoon and place on serving tray. Taste sauce and adjust seasoning to taste. Drizzle sauce over meatballs and serve.
