I never put raw onions or garlic in my meatballs, I love to use cooked onions and garlic, so a little bit of that, and that's just cooked in a little bit of olive oil, some grated... Freshly-grated Parmesan cheese, which we'll use the rest later as well, and then, finally, some Italian breadcrumbs, which you can either make or, of course, you can buy.
A little bit of salt and black pepper... And go ahead and mix that all together.
So once it is all nice and well-blended, go ahead and make whatever shape meatball you like, some people like them bigger, some like them smaller, so once you have that, what I like to do is saute the meatball, so I put them all in a big-surface-area saute pan with olive oil until they're nice and golden... Then I add a little bit of chicken stock and some tomato sauce, and I finish the cooking process after they have seared with a nice color, so I like to place some warm meatballs in their tomato sauce in a bowl like this, makes sure you put a little bit of fresh sauce right over the top, and then, place some fresh ricotta cheese right on the top of that, a sprinkle of good Parmesan, and then, rip some fresh basil right over the top, like so, and there you have it, my delicious chicken meatball, just wait 'til you see how light and feathery they are.
