Cook the Meatballs: Heat 2 tablespoons of organic extra virgin olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet (such as cast iron) over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully add the meatballs in a single layer, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan. Cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
