Chicken Marsala Meatballs
  1. Preheat the broiler to high.

  2. In a large bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, milk and 1 tablespoon Marsala. Leave to soak for 5 minutes.

  3. Add the chicken, pecorino, egg, parsley, ½ teaspoon of the salt and the pepper. With your hands, gently mix together the ingredients until just combined.

  4. Form the mixture into tablespoon-size balls and place on an oiled baking sheet.

  5. Broil for 5 minutes, or until the meatballs are beginning to brown and are just barely cooked through. Remove from the oven and set aside.

  6. In a straight-sided skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat.

  7. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the mushrooms are brown on all sides, about 5 minutes.

  8. Add the shallots and the remaining ½ teaspoon salt and cook for another 2 minutes.

  9. Lower the heat to medium and stir in the flour and the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.

  10. Add the ⅓ cup Marsala and stir until the mixture is smooth.

  11. Whisk in the chicken broth and simmer for 5 minutes.

  12. Add the meatballs to the sauce and simmer for an additional 5 minutes to let the flavors blend.

  13. Serve hot, garnished with grated pecorino.
