MOZZARELLA STUFFED CHICKEN SAUSAGE BALLS, TOMATO-BASIL SAUCE, CACIO E PEPE POTATOES AND ROAST BROCCOLINI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Quarter baby potatoes and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil then salt water and cook until tender, about 12 minutes.

To form each ball, take a handful of meat and wrap it around a piece of mozzarella. Roll 12 balls. Wash up. Coat balls with a drizzle of olive oil. Bake 18 to 20 minutes until cooked through and evenly browned.
