Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 Onion, peeled and finely chopped
  • 1 clove Garlic, minced
  • ½ cup Chicken Stock
  • ½ cup Heavy Cream (Double Cream)
  • 1 tbsp Dijon Mustard
  • 2 lbs Swedish Meatballs, store-bought or homemade
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Dill, chopped
  • Sea Salt and Black Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Sauté the Onions In a large lidded frying pan or dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until soft, about 10 minutes.
  2. Step 2: Add Garlic Add the minced garlic to the onions, continuing to sauté for an additional minute, just until fragrant.
  3. Step 3: Mix Liquids and Seasonings Mix in the chicken stock, heavy cream, and Dijon mustard. Increase the heat to bring the mixture to a boil, then season with salt and black pepper according to your taste preferences.
  4. Step 4: Cook the Meatballs Add the meatballs to the sauce, then reduce the heat to a low simmer. Cover the pan with a lid. Allow the meatballs to simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, ensuring they are heated through and the sauce thickens slightly. Adjust the sauce’s consistency by adding a bit more chicken stock and cream if necessary.
  5. Step 5: Final Seasoning and Dill Do a final seasoning check and adjust if needed. Sprinkle fresh chopped dill over the dish just before serving.
