Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, onion, garlic, parsley, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  • Shape the meat mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and cook until browned on all sides, about 6-8 minutes.
  • Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside.
  • Add the flour to the skillet and stir to combine with the remaining oil. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
  • Slowly whisk in the beef broth and red wine, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
  • Return the meatballs to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them.
  • Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through.
  • Serve the meatballs hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
