These party meatballs are baked and then pan glazed with our date and orange chutney.  The results are hearty meatballs with a sweet caramelized date and fresh orange flavor with a hint of cayenne just to give a warm tingle to your palate.  The orange rinds in the chutney give a great contrast to the sauce and with the flavors reminiscent of a fruit cake, these meatballs are fabulous for a Christmas or Holiday gathering.
