Lamb meatballs made with fresh basil, mint and oregano are delicious on their own. They're even tastier served with a side of creamy Parmesan polenta.

Steps:
- Mix meat, bread crumbs, eggs, dry seasonings and 1/4 cup cheese just until blended. Roll into 24 (1-inch) meatballs. Refrigerate 1 hour.
- Heat oil in large skillet on medium heat. Add half the meatballs; cook 8 to 10 min. or evenly browned, turning occasionally. Use slotted spoon to remove meatballs from skillet. Repeat with remaining meatballs. Discard any oil remaining in skillet.
- Return all meatballs to skillet. Add pasta sauce; stir. Cover; simmer on medium-low heat 30 min. or until meatballs are done (160ºF), stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, bring water to boil in medium saucepan. Slowly add polenta, stirring constantly with whisk. Cover; cook on low heat 30 min. or until polenta thickens and pulls away from side of pan, stirring frequently. Remove pan from heat. Add butter and remaining cheese; stir until butter is melted and mixture is well blended.
- Serve meatballs and sauce with the polenta.
