Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Prep and roast the vegetables
Heat the oven to 425°F.
- Scrub or peel the sweet potato. Cut the potato into 1-inch pieces.
- Trim the ends from the Brussels sprouts. Cut the sprouts in half lengthwise.
On a sheet pan, drizzle the sweet potato and Brussels sprouts with 1 to 2 teaspoons oil, season generously with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Spread in an even layer and roast, stirring once halfway through, until the vegetables are lightly browned and tender, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and season to taste with salt and pepper. Drizzle the honey-mustard vinaigrette over the vegetables and toss gently to coat. While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the meatballs.
2
Prep the meatballs
- Coarsely chop the dried cranberries.
- Cut a small corner from the ground turkey packaging and drain off any excess liquid. Transfer to a plate; pat dry with a paper towel.
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, dried thyme, and cranberries, season generously with salt and pepper, and mix until just combined. Using wet hands, form the mixture into 1½- to 2-inch meatballs.
3
Cook the meatballs
In a medium [large] frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 2 to 3 teaspoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, until lightly browned but not yet cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking, turning occasionally, until the meatballs are cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes longer. Remove from the heat.
Serve
Transfer the meatballs and roasted vegetables to individual plates. Sprinkle the vegetables with the pumpkin seed dukkah and serve.
