In the same large soup pot used to brown the meatballs add onion to the drippings and cook until tender. Mix in chicken base and allow to dissolve well.

Add meatballs and allow to simmer another 15 minutes. In a second pot, boil water for the Acini de pepe. When water begins to boil, add salt liberally. Let water return to a boil.
