Meatballs with Cream Sauce

I found this recipe on My Kitchen Cafe and I thought I would give it a try. I was not disappointed. My family loved it. My six year old and two year old ate as many meatballs as I did. I'm definitely going to make this again!

Meatballs with Cream Sauce


Meatballs:

1 egg lightly beaten

1/4 cup milk

2 Tbsp ketchup

1 tsp worcestershire sauce

3/4 cup quick oats

1/4 cup minced onion

1/4 cup minced fresh parsley

1 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

1 1/2 lb ground beef

3 Tbsp flour

Cream Sauce:

2 Tbsp butter

3 1/2 Tbsp flour

1/4 tsp thyme

1/4 tsp salt

1/8 tsp pepper

14 oz. chicken broth

2/3 cup milk

2 Tbsp minced fresh parsley

Combine meatball ingredients except for ground beef and flour. Add ground beef and mix well. Roll in flour and shake off excess. Place on a cookie sheet. For easy clean up, I placed a piece of aluminum foil over the cookie sheet and lightly sprayed with cooking spray. Bake at 400 for 10 minutes. Turn and bake for an additional 10 minutes until cooked through.

Meanwhile, melt butter. Add flour, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth. Gradually add chicken broth and milk. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Cook and stir for 2 minutes until slightly thickened.

Drain meatballs on paper towels. Place in a serving bowl and top with sauce and parsley. Serve over rice or egg noodles.
