Meatball Preparation

  3. Using a medium cookie scoop, shape the meatballs and arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Arrange the meatballs in one layer and brown on all sides, then remove the browned meatballs to a clean plate.
  3. Pour the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil into the same skillet and add the mushrooms.
  4. Cook the mushrooms, stirring frequently for about 3 minutes, or until browned. Remove them to a clean plate.
  5. In the same skillet, melt the butter and stir in the flour. Cook the flour mixture for at least 2 minutes, whisking constantly.
  6. Slowly pour in the beef stock while whisking continuously.
  7. Add Worcestershire sauce and garlic, then bring to a boil, whisking frequently.
