Instructions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and top with a wire rack. Grease rack with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 2
Add all meatball ingredients to a large bowl. Mix gently until combined, making sure not to over-mix. Portion meatballs using a medium cookie scoop. Roll into smooth balls and place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes or until cooked through.
Step 3
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, 2-3 minutes. Pour in pomegranate juice, chicken broth and pomegranate molasses. Bring to a boil then lower heat and simmer until reduced in half, about 8-10 minutes. Season with allspice, salt and pepper.
Step 4
Mix together cornstarch and water in a small bowl. Pour into the sauce to thicken it up. Add the cooked meatballs to the skillet and coat in the sauce. To serve, top with Pom seeds, pistachios and parsley.
