1
Preheat oven to 400 F. Finely chop 1/2 an onion, process bread into crumbs in a processor, and combine all ingredients for the meatballs including seasonings.
2
Using washed and clean hands, roll the meatballs into 2-inch diameters and place on foil on rimmed baking sheet (otherwise fat will run off). Continue making meatballs until ingredients are all used up. You should end up with about 16 large meatballs.
3
Place the meatballs on the baking sheet or foil, spacing them 1 inch apart.
