Preparation
Place racks in upper and lower thirds of oven, preheat to 425. Cut bread in half lengthwise then crosswise. Mix butter, 3 garlic cloves, and 1 Tbs oil in a small bowl. Spread over cut sides of bread. Top with 1/3 cup parm; season with salt and pepper. Place bread, cut side up, on a rimmed baking sheet.
Mix egg, panko, herbs, 1 tsp kosher salt, remaining 1 garlic clove and 2 Tbs water in a large bowl; season with lots of black pepper. Add beef and gently mix together with your hands. Form into 1 1/2" diameter balls (you should have 16 in total).
Cut half of tomatoes in half. Place all tomatoes in a medium bowl; add red peppers. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
Place 1 red onion, coarsely chopped, on a second rimmed baking sheet; drizzle with oil. Season with salt and black pepper; toss to coat. Arrange in a single layer; roast on top rack until starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Add tomato mixture and roast until tomatoes soften, 10-12 minutes.
Place meatballs throughout vegetables; drizzle with oil. Roast, shaking pan once, until meatballs are cooked through and most of the tomatoes have burst, 9-11 minutes.
Meanwhile, bake reserved garlic bread on bottom rack until golden brown,
8-10 minutes.
Divide meatball mixture among plates and top with basil leaves and Parmesan. Serve with garlic bread.
