- Bring a large pot of cold, generously salted water to a boil and leave covered.
- Preheat your oven to 400 F
- Mix all of the ingredients for the meatballs together in a medium sized mixing bowl including cracked pepper to taste. Once combined, use a 1/2 Tablespoon measure to scoop the meat mix and roll into meatballs. Transfer them to a parchment lined baking sheet. Once your oven is preheated, add the meatballs and bake for 7 minutes, flip, and continue for another - 7 minutes. If the sauce isn't ready yet, turn off your oven and leave the balls in there to keep warm. It should be fairly close in timing.
- Begin heating your butter, EVOO, and pepper flakes, in a large skillet set to about medium. Once heated, add the onion and a good pinch of both salt & pepper. Stir and let the onions cook for 5 minutes. Add the garlic, stir, and continue to cook another 5 minutes or so until your onions are nice and tender. Pour in the wine & a good hit of salt & pepper, and let that simmer away for 3 minutes. Pour in your cream and wait for the sauce to start bubbling away. At this point, reduce your heat to a simmer and season generously with salt & pepper.
- Once the meatballs are done, add them directly to the skillet with your sauce and stir them around. At this time, drop your ravioli into the boiling water and cook according to package directions until al dente. Once your ravioli are floating and al dente (test one to be sure), transfer them directly to your creamy meatball skillet and save the pot of pasta water. Toss them in the sauce as they continue to simmer, making sure to stir / toss often as they finish cooking and thicken up the cream sauce for a few minutes.
- Once they're perfectly cooked, turn off the heat, add the grana padano, parsley, and a ladle of pasta water. Toss until creamy and combined. Taste and adjust your salt / pepper if needed / desired. Don't be afraid to add extra pasta water for a creamier sauce. Set aside for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve garnished with additional parsley and grana padano. ENJOY!
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
