Grill Meatballs The Immortal Iron Fist Way

Danny Rand is on to something!

Season 2 of "Marvel's Iron Fist" debuted last week to strong praise.

If there's one thing you can take away from the season, it's that Danny Rand and his K'un-Lun brother Davos do not see eye-to-eye on a number of things. One of which is what is the proper way to prepare meatballs for your pasta dinner.

Danny couldn't have possibly learned the art of perfecting meats during his time at K'un-Lun if Davos didn't. Where did he learn it then? Who knows? All you need to know is that it's gosh darn delicious, and our resident expert in all things food Jenn Fujikawa (@justjenn) is back with a new recipe for us!

Fire up your grill and let's prepare some meatballs the Immortal Iron Fist-way!

Don't forget the Colleen Wing-technique of testing if your pasta's done by flinging it across the room and see if it sticks.

To kick things up a notch, serve your grilled meatballs and pasta with some Immortal Iron Fist garlic bread. Cut out the Iron Fist symbol and sprinkle on some black sesame seeds or poppy seeds. Dinner is now served!
