Sheet Pan Mediterranean Meatball Bowls with Roasted Vegetables

Ingredients

  • 10 oz Cauliflower
  • 10 oz Broccoli
  • 12 oz sweet potatoes
  • 4 tsp Olive Oil
  • 1 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • black pepper
  • 1/3 cup Breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp chicken
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1/4 cup Parsley
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 lb lean ground turkey
  • 1/2 cup hummus
  • 2 oz Feta Cheese
  • Dill
  • 1 Lemon
  • 1/2 Red onion
  • 1/4 cup Red wine
  • 3 tbsp Water
  • 1/4 tsp Kosher Salt

Equipment

  • Sheet Pan (2), Baking Sheet Lined With Foil
  • bowl
  • Fork
  • Spray Bottle Or Brush For Oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400F. Adjust the 2 center racks.

  2. 2

    Spray a large sheet pan with oil, add sweet potatoes, drizzle with 1 teaspoon oil and season with ¼ teaspoon salt, using your hands to coat well and spread out. Roast 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile in a large bowl, combine the cauliflower and broccoli with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, ¼ teaspoon salt, and toss well to coat evenly.

  4. 4

    Combine the panko, chicken broth, egg, parsley, spices, and remaining 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl and mix well to combine.

  5. 5

    Add the turkey and mix using a fork to fully combine everything, careful not to overwork. Using wet hands, form into 12 meatballs and place on a smaller sheet pan, lined with foil.

  6. 6

    Remove the pan from the oven, stir, then push the sweet potatoes to one side, add the remaining vegetables on the other side of the pan, making sure everything has a little bit of room. Place them back into the oven along with the meatballs.

  7. 7

    Bake until the meatballs are cooked through, and the vegetables are tender, about to 25 minutes. Remove the vegetables and broil the meatballs on high to 3 minutes, until the top is browned. Sprinkle the veggies with a pinch of salt.

  8. 8

    While they bake, toss the sliced onion with the vinegar, water and salt in a small bowl. Let sit at room temperature for at least 10 minutes, stirring once or twice, until softened and lightly pickled. Then drain.

  9. 9

    To serve, divide the meatballs and vegetables among 4 bowls, top veggies with pickled onions and feta, add 2 tablespoons hummus to the bowl, and finish with fresh dill and fresh lemon juice.
