Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450.

Heat olive oil in a medium heavy skillet over medium heat. Add pancetta and cook for 2 minutes. Add onion and continue to cook until pancetta is crisp and onion is tender, about 4 minutes more. Remove from heat and let cool.

In a large bowl, combine pancetta mixture with the rest of the ingredients and stir to combine. Form into balls about 2 inches in diameter, using 2 TB for each. Place on a foil-lined sheet and bake for 20 minutes.
