- Roll into equal size balls (should make 10-12) and set aside
- In a cooking pan (preferably one that can go into the oven), heat olive oil over medium heat on stovetop, add meatballs and brown about 3 minutes on each side
- Transfer pan into oven and cook for 18 minutes
- Once the meatballs are cooked through, add marinara sauce on top of the meatballs and cook for another 1-2 minutes
