Easiest Ever Meatballs and Gravy over Rice

Easiest Ever Meatballs and Gravy over Rice Ground sausage makes it easy to cook up meatballs and gravy over rice in under 30 minutes! 1 pound Italian turkey sausage, sweet or hot, casings removed 2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil 2 tablespoons flour 2 cups reduced-sodium chicken or beef broth 1/4 cup milk 3 cups rice, cooked Place ground sausage in a bowl. Spray medium skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Scoop sausage with a medium disher (or cookie scoop) directly into the hot skillet. (If you don't have a disher, form rounded tablespoons of meat into balls by hand.) Cook meatballs about 5 minutes until brown on one side, then use tongs to flip. Cook an additional 5-7 minutes until cooked through. Transfer meatballs to a clean bowl. Reduce heat to medium, and add flour and oil to the skillet, whisking together until smooth. Cook 2-3 minutes until flour mixture starts to brown, then very slowly add broth, about ¼ c. at a time, whisking constantly. Stir in milk, and bring gravy to a low boil. Return meatballs to the gravy, and spoon gravy over the meat. Simmer for a few minutes before serving over cooked rice.
