How to Make Aunt Barb's Swedish Meat Balls
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- While oven preheats, prepare your sauce: In a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven, combine 1 cup chili sauce, ½ cup grape jelly, 1 medium onion (finely chopped), 2 cloves garlic (minced), and 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce.
- Heat the sauce over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the jelly is melted and the onion is softened (about 5-7 minutes).
- Season the sauce generously with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add 1 lb of pre-cooked frozen Swedish meatballs to the skillet.
- Partially cover the skillet and transfer to the preheated oven. Simmer for 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meatballs are heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Serve immediately over mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice. Enjoy!
