Meatballs:
- 1 pound ground beef
- ⅓ cup (39g) breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 1 packet Lipton Onion Soup Mix
Sauce:
- 1 (12 ounce ) jar chili sauce
- ¾ cup (229g) jelly (grape, raspberry, or apricot)
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Stir together meatball ingredients in a large bowl. Form 1-inch size meatballs and roll between your palms to form into balls.
Place meatballs on cookie sheet. No need to space them – but just make sure they aren’t touching each other. Bake 18-25 minutes, or until browned and cooked through to 165°F. Tip: flip them halfway through baking so they’re evenly cooked and browned.
Towards the end of the baking process, stir chili sauce and jelly in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook until the jelly is melted and combined into the sauce and the sauce bubbles.
Toss hot sauce with cooked meatballs and serve immediately.
