2. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment or foil and set a wire rack on top if you have one.
3. Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Form the mixture into equally portioned meatballs and add to the pan. Brown on all sides, about 1–2 minutes per side.
4. Transfer the browned meatballs to the prepared baking sheet and bake until cooked through to 165°F, about 15–20 minutes.
5. Warm the pasta sauce in a small saucepan over low heat until simmering. Serve the meatballs with the sauce spooned over the top.
