Put the red onion, garlic, ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, parsley, mint, oregano, basil, olive oil, salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl and use your hands to mix well. Make sure the mixture is smooth and well combinted.

Use a large cookie scoop to create a ball and work it into a ball using your hands. Place on a non-stick baking sheet or one that has been sprayed with non-stick spray.

Spray the meatballs with olive oil or use a small dish and a brush to brush them with olive oil. This helps them brown and crisp on the outside.
