PREPARATION
1.
Preheat the oven top-broiler on high.
2.
Run diced pepperoni, parsley leaves, 2 cloves smashed garlics and 1/2 onion cut into chunks in a food-processor until they resemble a chunky, coarse texture.
3.
Transfer to a bowl along with ground beef, ground pork, panko breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese, ground cayenne, crushed fennel seeds, ground paprika, salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
4.
Gently mix just until even, then shape the mixture into 16 tightly packed meatballs and place on a parchment-lined baking-sheet.
5.
Place in the middle-rack in the oven and toast until golden browned on all sides (flipping once). Or put them into a somewhat deep steel pan on the stovetop and simmer them in marinara over medium-high heat.
