5. 5Step 5: Add in the finely chopped parsley and onion into the bowl.
6. 6Step 6: Remove jewelry or wear gloves and with clean hands mix everything together! Make sure it's MIXED WELL.
7. 7Step 7: Once mixed thoroughly, grab a skewer of some sort (I use my handy knife sharpener) and grab a good amount of meat and shape around the skewer. NOTE: you don't want them to be super thick.
8. 8Step 8: You can cook on the grill, stovetop with olive oil, or in the oven! We generally cook them in the oven at 350 degrees. For timing, it's usually a guessing game but for our oven, we found the sweet spot is 12 minutes on one side and about 7-8 minutes on the other. Keep a close eye on them as you don't want them to be super dry!
